The White Tree - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Then Saucepan hit Reply, and there was a box in front of him white like newly fallen snow and skirted by codes and smilies; and as he looked he was aware that there among the icons another thing had appeared. And he scrolled to it, and saw that at the very end of the line of icons there sprang a sapling tree no more than a centimetre high. Already it had put forth small branches, silver against the dark behind, and upon each slender branch it bore a small flower shining white like the click button next to it.

Then Saucepan cried: "Yé! utúvienyes! I have found it! Lo! here is a scion of the Eldest of Trees! But how comes it here? For it was not here when I visited the site earlier today."

And the Barrow-Wight coming looked at it, and said: "Verily this is an image of the creation of Helen the fair. Who shall say how it comes here in the appointed hour? Well I could, but you wouldn't understand if I did. It's something to do with coding. But it makes a rather nice addition to the icons, don't you think?"

Good job, Helen.

What a wonderful little tree! I absolutely love it!

I can't believe that you created it just in paint!

Bravo Helen, I will make sure to use it as many times as possible

I must agree that the tree is a really great icon. We needed that one here, I know that I had thought of that one earlier, that the BD needed the White Tree. And now it's there! Yay!

But I feel that we need more icons yet... there are none for the dwarves... I've made one as an axe...

See?

Oh well, the tree is a really great icon! Thanks, Mark\Helen, or whoever you are that made it.

Very nice, Helen! Thank you!

And I would like to see a dwarvish icon added, as Eowyn Skywalker mentioned.

Wow, with paint? That is very, very brave Helen. Well I love it! It is truly beautiful, defiantly like a great white tree! Well done and thank you very much indeed!
