    Totally with you on this, i found it too, thanks so much.
    Except in that heavily pixelated image i can't notice any red area. But the key-word is exactly that: pixelated. It could well be that the red "got lost" in some way. Even by the guy (Zakk) "distressing"/heavily rubbing it while playing.

    If you have 'Watch Thread' selected at the top of the page you should get an alert for any replies. If you didn't get notified then something must be wrong in your Preferences. I think the preferences pop up when you select the watch thread.

    Nope, they're both on.
    Both this
    "Messages in Threads
    Receive an alert when someone...
    • Replies to a watched thread
      Someone replies to a thread you are watching"
    and the "Watch thread" tick is also on.
    I didn't receive any alert/notif. this time either :slight_smile:

    You might already know this, but if the button says “Watch Thread”, it means you’re currently not watching the thread and clicking the button will give the option to watch it. Conversely, if it says “Unwatch Thread”, it means you’re currently watching the thread and clicking the button will give the option to unwatch it.

    When clicking “Watch Thread” you should get a dialogue box with options to receive or not receive email notifications.
    Either way, if new posts are made to a thread you’re watching (or if someone mentions/quotes you), the next time you log in you should see a small red box with a number in it. The number corresponds to how many new alerts you have, and the box will be in the upper right of the page and to the right of the flag icon (between the envelope button and the search button).

    Terribly sorry for luring this into unwanted posts but I feel like I'm helping the guys who are managing this forum: so yes, the "watch" currently appears as "Unwatch Thread", and yes the red box is indeed functioning, when I'm back in I can indeed see the red notifications. BUT, the email notifications aren't working.

    I'd head to Forums and then > Watched Forums/Threads and check the settings.

    I meant to dig out my copy of the HMR's "Last Round" but, you know, things get in the way... so yesterday, going through my vinyl to find stuff my record-dealer buddy might want to sell, I came across it. BUT, of course, albums don't quite fit on my scanner so I got frustrated with that and then thought, "Oh, damn, why am I bothering. I'll just borrow some photos from ended eBay auctions..."

    A lot more Pop that Beer, but still a lot of brewery crowns and some that might be. I'm pretty sure that anchor is not Anchor. Probably the ones I personally "twisted off" was the Little King's (Cincinnati's Finest) followed by the Lucky.

    Can you post a pic that's more clear? What I see is out of focus, or is in such bad condition that it's probably unrecognizable to anyone.

    Looks like it's a zoomed in picture of this image. It's not high enough quality to get any good detail on that cap unfortunately. Cap image resembles two white objects like sails to me but that's just a wild guess on my part.

    Yeah, it's possibly a Pyramid Ales cap. But how the triangles/pyramids look spatially relative to each other does not seem to match to me. The guitar cap seems to have the shapes more overlapping each other. Also, the smaller of the two shapes on the guitar cap seems to be the front one whereas on the Pyramid Ales it's the one more behind. Certainly could be the extremely poor quality of the guitar cap and my eyes playing tricks on me.

    Have i made y'all drool about all these beers or what!
    Since I've started this guitar repro, I've turned to American beer. I'm drinking Miller and Sam Adams, out of which Miller seems to be such a gentle touch, that I'm able to drink it like water, lol.
    Zid, you da man!!! :grin: Thank you so much.
    I've enhanced the one on the guitar, seems to be the one.
    Now I need to build up a good sticker.

    Just to follow-up and acknowledge @zid 's post above (and apologize for any doubt on my part :laughing:). He definitely looks to be spot on with the cap. Rotating it a bit it matches quite well. The one on the guitar is quite worn (and seemingly smashed a bit) but it all seems to match and even the 'Have a good beer" writing. I see other Pyramid Ales caps with different phrases but this one looks good. Head the finder's fee zid's way. :wink:

    Smashed, rusted crowns on a reproduction of the flag which symbolizes slavery and racism don't have any appeal to me.

    First of all, thank you so much, guy! I appreciate this a lot! Rule of thumb
    Then... Lol, but ok.
