Hi Thomas,

easy to say.   :-)

I never tried to make clothings, so I feel like the ox in front of the 
gate - means, just no idea, how to. I will try, nevertheless.

I would be happy if you, whenever you're ready, can assist me. I would like 
to see your ancient humans and their clothings. Lots of resources on the 
net. Thanks,

Sven
