[edit] Photo

I am switching back to the old photo. I don't think someone dressed up in quote representative unquote clothing is better than a group of Yi people in everyday attire. Yunfeng (talk) 15:09, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

This photo I put on was not "dressed up in quote" - no holiday dress, no ceremonial dress. It is precisely the kind of attire for Yi women you see everyday in Liangshan region, Sichuan. This is my first hand experience. The old photo does not show enough characteristics of Yi people. That said, there are huge difference between Yi people in different provinces in China. I personally have seen three completely different kind of (daily) attires. JialiangGao (talk) 22:41, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
