Mike, Thanks! Great find with the Dobbs "Rainbow"! Really like the felt color and finish! Also nice Capas Straw from unfortunately not for long Byrnie Utz Hats!

My guess is you’re using an iPhone for pics and uploading posts from the iPhone albums, which look fine when you post them on your phone yet when seen on the lounge they are wonky to others but still look ok to you.
Is that close Wyldkarma?
May be able to help if you told us your posting methods. Just a thought.

Taken with Samsung galaxy S8, then uploaded to my desktop computer, where I can resize them to post them online. They all show correct on my computer, windows 10, when I post. Even after I post they all look normal on both my computer and my phone. Are they all looking wonky on your end, or just some of them?

WK i’d say 60-75% wonky. More so earlier on, less so now. I had the exact same troubles when i first started but with an Iphone. I’ve never viewed the lounge with a computer or Pad or Tablet. As soon as i got a “re-sizer” app, i guess that’s what it’s called, it was fixed. Unless no one has told me. Ha
Maybe see what others say an or PM the Staff for an answer. Good luck.

I think I found the topsy turvy picture problem. I use my galaxy phone in a selfie stick, it is attached sideways, if I attached the phone with the top of my phone facing in the 3 oclock position they load funny on my computer (and i have to invert them on the computer), if I attach the phone with the top of phone facing the 9 oclock position they seem to come out correctly. Never knew that might be an issue. My understanding was once I upload photos into my photo editor they should automatically auto-correct, but that does not appear to always happen. The above photos were taken with the top of phone facing the 9 oclock position.

Yes they are via iPhone. I’ll let you know if you get wonky. The pics i mean. Drove me crazy not knowing if mine were.

My first antique store find. I had to drive 300 miles away from home for it to happen though. Patty and I were going to a get together dinner at a German restaurant in Renton WA and had a few minutes to walk around town. Poked our heads into an antique store and I asked for any hats. Found a Dobbs Rainbow!! The wife talked the owner down to $25! The sweat needs a lot of help (torn next to the rear seam) and its dirty as hell. But it is not a damn baseball hat for once. Probably will have Mike Miller look at the sweat. The liner is intact, printed not embroidered, but cool anyway. It's a little on the stingy side with a 2" brim, but has a Guild Edge! Project hat for sure.

More on my pilgrimage to Byrnie Utz hats. I had to buy something. We were running out of time, spent too much time visiting with the Owner, and had to make a quick decision. The store was picked over pretty good, nothing but little and extra huge! Brent would have been in heaven! I could have spent $300 on a modern Borsalino, but that was not in the cards. Woolies galore and modern Stetsons...most in 7 3/4. At the last minute (they wanted to close) I grabbed a funky little Capas open weave stingy for $35.00. Lipstick (Puggaree) on a pig and I said goodbye to the oldest hat store in Seattle. It was a whirlwind stop, but I did get something. I needed a hat for the unusually hot temps in Seattle that weekend anyway. Really need it here in Oregon with 90+ days all week.

Don't judge me.

I like both hats, Mike! Sounds like a fun trip to me!

All things are relative. You be the judge.

Plus, I have to stand on one foot, face due west, close my left eye, and hold tongue firmly to to right side of my cheek, then they all look fine....

J. Hückel´s Söhne "Elastic", French Point Size 5 1/2, 148 grams, probably early to mid 1930s. I really like the bow design and the condition is near mint. I have many J. Hückel´s Söhne Stiff Felts.

Amazing hat....very sharp looking.
