Hi. I'm new.
Wayseer. My sig does not appear to be working? Last edited by wayseer; 08-12-2008 at 05:47 AM. |

wayseer, Welcome to the Downs!
In regards to you signature, you may want to confirm that the "Show signature" checkbox is selected in the Edit Options > Thread Display Options section. You can get there via clicking on the User CP link at the upper left of your page, and then finding the Edit Options link on the left. Let me know if you need further assistance.. And happy posting!

Thank you for your words of welcome Alatar.
Been to the CP>options and both sig and avatar are ticked. Avatar is obviously working but not sig. Ha Ah Now it's working - maybe it only kicks in after a couple of posts. Very wise of the Mods.

Hello from the Shire!
Greetings everyone! Here's what I wrote earlier in another thread, but was directed to add it here instead: I was brought up, and still live about half a mile from Tolkien's childhood stomping ground of Sarehole Mill and Moseley Bog, and because of this I feel an intimate, personal connection with his works, which exist in the very landscape around here - not to mention local tales and stories about Tolkien himself. Because of this connection I have been inspired, over many years, to make an extensive study of the connections between the Legendarium and real history and mythology, and some of the fruits of this research are presented on my website Three Rings for the Elven Kings, linked below. There are many issues raised here, not least that of canon, and I look forward to debating all of them.

Welcome, Ashbranch! Thanks for reposting your introduction here; I've closed (and will soon delete) your individual thread - a routine procedure on the Downs to keep the forum from getting overly full and cluttered.
We look forward to your contributions; I'm not the only member who has visited Sarehole Mill and enjoyed seeing the place where Tolkien spent formative years of his childhood. Did you attend "Tolkien 2005" in Birmingham?
