I fixed your pictures for you. When posting pictures from phototbucket just copy the IMG code  from each picture on the side and past it in your post. 

Good for a starting costume, but the colors aren't very sith like in my opinion. More of a jedi costume even with a mask. Also your tabbards should be longer.

yes, i didnt make it myself and i am disappointed with the length of the tabards, when not crossed at the front they do cover more of my back so thats what il have to do. (in fairness they were included for free when i requested them with the shirt.

i think i will dye the shirt. probably dark red that should give it the sith look. thanks for fixing the photos Smiley

Regarding the tabards, they should sit more like a Y than an X, like this:

Yes remember Y is jedi and X is mortal combat Smiley

Looks good, but definitely more Jedi-ish.  Dying the shirt blood-red or some such color should help the Sith look. 

Personally, I think the tabards look fine in the X shape, though either way works. 

Besides, if the X is from Mortal Kombat, who cares?  Wouldn't you love to be a Sith Scorpion or Jedi Raiden?!

raiden actually has the y look lol Tongue black robe on its way now so the tabard length not much of an issue as the back will be covered. i dont think im going to go with red for the shirt, i have a black n gold mask a yellow saber so id like to keep with the theme of gold black (custom nerf blaster is also gold with black weathering). im thinking of a dark gold dye but i dont think it will look good at all.

Can you add a gold piping or trim to the shirt, after dyeing it black?

Dyeing the shirt gold would be making yourself into Darth Disco, and he's deader than the Emperor, which is why I suggest the trim idea.  Trim can be that pop of color that one might want.

I'm sure you could find gold trim at someplace like a Hancock Fabrics or Joann's...  no dyeing of that involved.  Dye the shirt first, then add trim/piping.
