Also, just because we've been here forever doesn't mean we're the most popular, or most 'barrowish' (Is that a word? Correct me if I made it up.) some of our most recent members have such effort and assertive participation that I could only have dreamt about when i first came... And I can imagine others who would say the same.

Amoung members there shouldn't be any monarchy or hiarchy (except of course, for the Barrow-Wight and his/her selected Moderators), just the fact that we've found other wights who delight in the same topics as we do, and want to have a enjoyable time.

Okay, I am done with my rant.

Of course, I'm still a relatively fresh corpse myself.

Which might explain the lack of any picture concerning me...

just a random thought Tigerlilly, but it seems rather redundant that the logo at the top of the picture page says "Ghouls of the the Barrow-Downs Revealed". Slightly repetitive. But otherwise, the page looks great! good work!

Yeah, that has been pointed out already.. but when I asked if I should change it, no one really answered.
I didn't really notice that the logo already had "the" in it... worked fast.
Don't know when I'll get around to changing it, though, because it involves redoing it, and my life is extremely complicated at the moment.

I will try to send a picture but I will have to dig one up. And it will be after exams too. I am suposed to be studying and yet I find myself on the downs. (Hate when that happens )

It is neat to see you all, now I actually know what you guys look like. No more wondering about that.

The baby page;cute idea but you might get repetitive remarks. Everyone will be saying "AAAWWW, he/she is so cute!"

Is there a pun in there somewhere?

Forget studying; posting at the BDs is much more important.

Good luck with those exams!

Yep. All that learning will just get them into trouble. And now that PJ has made the 'books' into 'movies,' there's no longer any reason for my children to learn readin' anyways.

Some guy once said, "ignorance is bliss," and I just want my chidren to be happy. And if it's not on TV, just how important can it be?

Mmmm, let's see.

Lalwende is definitely one of my favourite redheads, as well as my favourite photographer (as I already mentioned, davem's picture is gorgeous).

I'm obsessed with Aina's haircut. Favourite accessory is currently a tie between Heren's bandana and Elennar's flowers.

And Mad Baggins is most effortlessly chic.

So there.

Hey ho,
I guess most of you won't know me since I'm not very active at the moment (my last post was about a year ago). Well, at least Helka should know me since he is one of the old regs too .
anyways, I sent Tigerlily a new, more recent picture. Hope you like it.

edit: I wonder why no one has mentioned yet that dancing spawn of ungoliant is quite cute, too

Going way back to Alatar's post on the previous page...The pun was unintended. I didn't realize I had made one untill you mentioned it

Yes, that's reasonable. Now I'll just have to imagine you with blue long hair and really pale skin
