El Doctor,try looking for "naptha bath".
Ok I have been considering that as I saw a guy on youtube do that, but he said the sweatband had issues, otherwise fine. Thanks for the quick response.

Is there a function somewhere in the new FL format to reduce the page size (page content) without having to change the "zoom" on my computer and then change it back when I leave FL?

Mystic; in Firefox there is an add on to the browser to set custom zoom levels.
i was using "zoom page 14.0" go to tools and search for add ons using page zoom.
it sets a zoom level for a specified page
Explorer doesn't play nice

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping the forum had an option. Don't want to change my computer around to accommodate one website.

Seems when I make major changes on my computer I end up with a host of unwanted surprises that takes forever to straighten out.

Hello gentlemen, nice to find a thread that caters to my total ignorance of hats.
I am mostly a cap wearer, and I don't really see myself wearing a fedora well.
But I saw this in a 1940s film and thought 'i can pull that off'





Is it a trilby? Suede? Specifics would be most welcome.

Cheers

Hi all! I've been a hat wearer for a few years now but have mostly stuck with straw trilby styled hats. I'm looking at purchasing a proper hat and thought you guys could help me out by telling what sort of hat this young fellow is wearing in this photo. I really like this style...

From the "Ask a question, get an answer" thread, that's something of a 40's style fedora. Nice tall crown with little or no taper, and about a 2-5/8" brim. Go get one!!!
