Default Basket repotting

Hi,
This is Don, Sylvia's hubby asking if the attached photos of my repotted (basket) orchid looks okay.
After going to the Boca show and hearing an informative lecture by Orchid Mania I decided to secure the orchids in the basket we won using stockings (Sylvia's that is).
Anyway, did I do a good job?
Thanks for any feedback.
Don

It look OK to me, but I do have one piece of advice: only one plant per basket.

It looks like a catt and oncid in the same basket, and while they might do OK under the same conditions, what will you do if one of them gets diseased in some way?

General question (cuz I've never done it myself)...
are stockings ok to use to tie an orchid back? i've heard of wire and fishing line before... i just wouldn't want the stocking to stay moist and make the plant mushy... i'm curious
