First you need to have posted 10 [20?] posts. Then select a forum or subforum on the home page.

There is someone who is often mentioned on this website who sell kits with seals but I cannot remember the complete information. Someone will show up and post the information for you.
Thank you very much

The F100 IIRC does not have dust seals on the film door/back. It's just dust and/or a little piece of fluff that's in your camera. Pretty much can enter a camera any time - occasionally when I pay attention I can see a little fiber strand in the film gate on any camera that I happen to be using. Just remove it.
As others have mentioned, if the offending spot in the film is sharp, then it is very close to the film plane. Yours is not, so it will be sitting a little further back. Just have at it with a blower brush or canned air. Be careful not to tilt the can though!

Absolutely! Thank you so much! I am grateful but also I feel vaguely proud of myself for getting rid of the tiny strand of fiber, which is exactly what it was!

Now you need to go out, buy several rolls of film, shoot and develop the film and post the new photographs.
 
Thanks very much. I'm not getting the options on that drop down menu. Perhaps, as someone else said, I need to interact more before I'm allowed to start a thread. Thanks!
Something has been lost in translation, because you should have no trouble starting a new thread.
Sometimes new posters try to start a new thread and attempt to include a bunch of links, and that causes the forum software to hold the thread until one of us moderators can check it for spam contact, but that merely delays things.
Try clicking on the indicated "35mm cameras and accessories" on the top of the page - see here - and then see what appears.
