Most can be found in my Flickr Photostream.

Nice scans! My favourite is the cover image (with uroko motif). But the tartan kimono also versatile we could add some accessories and the formality can be increased into komon, I guess.
VastaaPoistaSpeaking of which, how did you scan your magazines and books? I meant, did you detach the binding first? I have some kimono magazines and books but I don't feel and dare to open the binding first since it will destroy the books :(, but without detach it, how would you keep the paper still in flat? I haven't successfully scanned a decent picture.
I use my scanner HP Deskjet. The glass is rather close to the edge of the scanner and only crops about 1cm of the side of the image. Which means that I do not have to open the book so that the binding breakes, but still gives the flat impression.^^
