Your pics look good. Jay Light's book has helped me some too, but I find myself reverting to older (working) habits in finishing a reed.
I would agree with trimming the thread shorter. (I usually tie 2 knots then 'lock' them with Duco cement.
I recently tried making a 'French scrape' reed and am surprised at how little different it sounds from my usual American long scrape.
But then again, I was taught to 'cut it so it plays' so the basic principles are the same; in the end, it's the ratios that make for the vibrations; wherever the thicknesses and thin-nesses happen in a reed, as long as the overall outcome is a vibrating, stable, in-tune reed, then no style is technically 'wrong'.
