Is there room and possibility to post home-made tunes (to SRD-lyrics) somewere on the Watch? And if so, what kind of files should it be?

Well, if you have any links to 'em, you're more than welcome to post them in Vespers. Vain is insanely resourceful (system resources like file space might be an issue), though. He might be able to put up something like the photo gallery for 'em.

Nope, not make, they are already made... :P I made all the tunes (2 of them) when I was 13, but I still hum them from time to time. One of them (I know not...) is almost possible to play on the bagpipe. Sounds horrible though.

Do not forget that there are many kinds of bagpipes in the world (the scotish warpipes are the worst!)... The swedish bagpipe makes no more noise than a violin (and acctually sometimes sound like one!), you can play it indoors and you can hardly hear it outdoors... :)

Not if you want to play them without getting deaf or a hernia... :wink: The acctuall point of bagpipes is the drone and the fact that it never stops sounding. Oh - what a joy to the ear!

Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooumm (why is there no emoticon for "drone sound - pure joy"? It sure would save some space. After one weekend playing the pipes I got home and my confused ears tried to get all sounds of my home in tune: ventilation, microwawe, computor, you name it - they all have drones you know)

Are you kidding? I love bagpipes! A well played bagpipe has an indescribably wild and poignant sound to it. Of course I have no idea what the different types of BP are. And admittedly, a badly played one sounds like a train wreck. When I was a kid I worked at a Ren Faire for awhile, and there was a Scottish contingent.....I loved the distant sound of those things on the early morning air. I did get rather sick of Scotland the Brave after awhile though, since they played it every other song. ;)
