Rather than going with individual dwarves, why not go with locations like we've already done for elves? There could be the Khazad-dum Award, the Lonely Mountain Award, and the Aglarond Award. Or the Glittering Caves Award, however you want to phrase it. That might be easier than trying to dig up pictures of Gimli, Gloin, and Dain. Gimli would be easy, but the other two could be difficult to find.

That's my two cents, anyway.

I really like Thundera's suggestion, and am thrilled as well that I
will be able to read more fanfiction about Dwarves! It's so hard to
find. Well... to me anyway.

Still don't have Outlook up and running.... Maybe after this weekend.

Anyway, I, too, liked the suggestion for Dwarves being places, as
with Elves. The Khazad-Dum Award sounds good, as does The Lonely
Mountain (but we'd have to find another for The Hobbit if we did
that) Award. And since I prefer longer names to shorter ones, I'd go
with the Glittering Caves Award, except that in this case, I tend to
like it's proper name: Aglarond.

Ooops, forgot that the Lonely Mountain was spoken for... Maybe the Erebor Award, instead? Except that sounds bizarre... Could we change the award in The Hobbit section to the Smaug Award?
