Is a Panama post OK...?

Post by IndyFlyer »

DISCLAIMER: First time posting an image, not sure if I got it right.... If I failed, take the writing until I become more adept to our forum.

Ok, not a Fedora, and I am tardy in posting an image of my new AB Raven, (as well as an Avatar), but I have been away without it for a few months on work related travels that did not allow its company. However, I have been in Key West for some time and did acquire a cool Panama both for the tropical climate and the need for a lid. Had to evacuate Key West today due to Dennis, but just could not leave the keys for the mainland entirely as instructed (I stopped at the first place that would take me-Key Largo). Afterall, I was standing in Hemingway's living room a few days ago, and Hemingway would not run.... Just had to share the pic and the upcoming adventure with you all. Dennis is becoming a mennis as I type, but wearing my Panama as the wind howls through the french doors of my room both makes me smile and takes me back to a time past.

The lass is my Wife and 'Marion' to my 'Indy-esque' adventures.

You basically did it right. Welcome to COW!

Is that a thumbnail from Image Shack? If so, when you host a pic, just cut/paste the entire url labeled 'forum', or one of the web forum versions. (Looks like image shack labels the url codes differently in the gallery than when you first host it.) What you got there was the thumbnail...not sure if you meant to get the original.

If you do post bigger, there's a restriction on sizes (for avatars, sig files, and graphics inline like this one): viewtopic.php?t=9523 (just in case you haven't seen it yet.)

Again, welcome to COW! We'll keep an eye out for your new avatar. ;)

You were standing in my living room? :wink: :lol:
The Panama looks great. I love those hats. Marcus wore one in LC but it was a different style (Patron), and, of course, Belloq wore one in Raiders.

Great picture and be careful down there.

Nice Panama, fits well with the backdrop of palm trees.

Cheers!

Thanks fellas. I unfortunately do not have an image editor loaded on laptop yet, so I cannot resize the pic for a larger view, nor post a couple of others I wanted to share that I thought you would enjoy. I can re-post after the fact when I return home, if that is still cool. Growing pains of a newbie, thanks for the help.
