Could an amateur replace a welted sweatband?

No one can post attachments.

Thanks. I was confused by the FAQ that talks about posting attachments and uploading photos from your own computer.

So, I'll try to post my Flickr photos again:

nope

Here's the link to my Flickr photos:

Please have mercy on this (relative) newbie. My computer still runs on kerosene.

Nice looking bowler well worth fixing it up.

 

[Lefty]

It's certainly a derby, and you need a pro to install a new sweat.

 

[Sam Craig]

Lefy's right.
That derby is worth professional attention.

BTW ... nice signature, Lefty!

Are you referring to my avatar photo? Two of the three members of that little ol' band from Texas...

He's refering to the original & just plain Lefty's signature line about Akubra threads...

O.k., sorry about that...

I'll take the original, but "just plain"? Puhleez.

I thought I'd hear about that....I was TOTALLY only refering to the handle as being unadorned with anymore letters.
You have well proven in MANY aspects to be far from plain, kind Sir....my apologies!

Mr. Original Lefty, I see you hosted my photos on another site in order to post them. Is there something about Flickr that this forum doesn't like?

And can I be Lefty the Second? Not that I could hold a candle to your knowledge and assistance in these parts...

I didn't host your photos elsewhere, I just posted the ones from your Flikr account. Not being familiar with Flikr, someone else will have to help you with finding the IMG code to post your photos. I use Google Chrome as my PC browser, which allows me to right click on your photos, choose Copy Image URL, and paste that (up to .jpg) into the pop-up that comes up here when I click that little photo icon between the link icon and the film icon.

You're certainly Lefty W. the first, but...


and GTD, I'm uncomfortable with you judging my handle.

Understood. Thanks for helping me out there.

I've been registered here since early 2007, but haven't posted much. Perhaps once I get the photo thing figured out, I'll come around more often. And I apologize for diverting the thread.

Carry on.

 

[Lefty W.]

By jove, I think he's got it...

...the photo thing, that is.

As you should be.

That's the first photo I've seen in this thread. (Flickr wanted me to sign onto Yahoo, one more unwanted, albeit minor, layer of complexity in my life.) looking forward to a whole-hat shot once it's refurbed.
