If at first you don't succeed bribe you quendi Posted by Tinni May 21, 2004 - 5:27:28 Topic ID# 1019
Yes folks I have made moo-cow eyes at Elurin all day and hand fed
Maglor chocolates. The end result: bad Haiku and four banner for the
The Elu Thingol of Doriath Award. Of course now the catagories are
going to change names and I am going to have to start again. A well,
such is life. -Tinni

I'm jealous. You have such helpful quendi around. Well, maybe not. Mine
haven't been siccing nuzguls on me, so I'm free to write my Star Trek
story..... If I ever get around to it.

As for the banners...I like them! One will need a wording change, if the
titles remain the same, because the awards won't actually be voted on or
handed out in the spring, but in the fall. That's banner #4.

I think, if they do change, you could adapt these to the new ones. Just
because they are named for places in LOTR doesn't mean they have to be
pictures of those places. Besides, Peter Jackson didn't even film Mirkwood.
(And why Eryn Lasgalen and not Mirkwood? Because there already is a Mirkwood
awards in The Hobbit category.) They could be given by Thranduil, Celeborn,
or Elrond.

Which number 4? Elu#4 or Turgon#4? Glad you like the banners. I just
remembered that while Elu Thingol, Turgon and Ingwe don't reside in
my head Elurin and Elured, Glorfindel and Maglor do. So I got them
to inspire me for the banners :) -Tinni

Elu #4. I didn't realize you had done any Turgon banners.


So now I'm torn about changing the titles because you've created 9 banners.
I'm going to pause the poll and open a discussion. I'd hate for all your
work to go to waste.

Yeah, I don't much like that one myself. I'll see if I can knock up
something better.
