Now that you had changed your avatar, I didn't imagine you looked like Inzil anymore.

Anyway that's a nice pic, and I love your hat (I might just steal it if I meet you some day).

Hahaha I can see the resemblance!

Me too, it sounds terribly cute.

All right then, so that nobody feels excluded, she's talking about this here:

(The little black devil on my arm that looks like Ralph Bakshi's Balrog as a baby minus wings is our sheltie bitch Bronwen, then a puppy of three months, now a sturdy and pretty headstrong wench of two years.)

I feel a follow up story coming.

Lindale · 08-19-2010, 10:17 AM

My brother Finrod Felagund has a picture already on our photo page! He's the little boy next to me on that particular shot. Thanks!!

Finrod Felagund · 08-19-2010, 11:45 PM

So, do I have to put another picture of me?

Snowdog · 08-31-2010, 04:11 PM

Thought I would put the pic of me in my Barrow Downs t-shirt up on Barrow Downs. Its from 2007. I have since did away with the David Crosby look & cut off the remaining hair.

I'll hunt up a more recent one...

Nerwen · 09-02-2010, 12:56 AM

Where was this taken, Snowdog?

Snowdog · 09-02-2010, 07:38 PM

Aspley Falls in New South Wales in '07. There was a drought still in '07 so instead of 'Wild Rivers' it was 'Wild Rocks'. Lots of high tablelands cut with these deep gorges. Would like to go back now that there's water out there.

Amanaduial the archer · 09-04-2010, 08:35 AM

I sent an email, but could my photo please be removed? Thanks

Ah, I thought it might be somewhere in that area.

Amanaduial the archer · 02-11-2011, 05:48 PM

ME AGAIN. So, who is now running/administrating the photo page(s)? I would really rather like my photo removed......

Mithalwen · 02-11-2011, 05:55 PM

Hi Aman, I think it is still Volo but he hasn't posted here for ages. I'll message him onFB if you like?

Galadriel55 · 05-12-2011, 09:21 PM

I wanted to do this a long time ago, but I didn't have any recent pictures at hand. Finally, when I have lots of work to do but don't want to get at it, I went to the computer and found about the only picture of myself that I still didn't delete.

This is quite an old picture (3 years old, I believe), and not one of my best ones. Now my hair is longer and darker, and I'm of course much prettier. No. Not really.

Well, here I am.

Bêthberry · 05-13-2011, 09:43 AM

OMG, G'lad, I have seen you!

Oh, and I think you're quite pretty there.

Nerwen · 05-23-2011, 01:04 AM

Actually, G55, you look a lot like a younger version of someone I know.

And now, since my pictures on the photo page are all three or four years old, here's an up-to-date Nerwen montage:

Here we behold the fair Elf-maid (1.) Roaming the wilds of Eriador, (2.) Communing with Nature, (3.) Feeling the Call of the Sea, (4.) Engaged in scholarly pursuits with her faithful animal companion and (5.) returning from the grave to gorge on the blood of the living.

Thinlómien · 05-23-2011, 06:44 AM

Great pics G55 and Nerwen! Although visiting this thread reminded me of the fact that my pic on the photo page is for years old...

So here's one from last summer.

Nerwen · 05-23-2011, 06:52 AM

Nice photo, Lommy! Which one's you, again?

Pitchwife · 05-23-2011, 07:48 AM

G55, somehow the merest glance at the photos you linked to made my Firefox 4 turn tail and vanish into its burrow (i.e.crash).

Scary! (Not the older version we use at work, though, luckily.)

Nerwen, that red-cheeked little fellow in picture 2 reminds me of your little friend Jonathan who met such a gruesome death in Morsul's Arkham Asylum game.

Galadriel55 · 05-23-2011, 07:50 AM

You're cute in that photo, Lommy!

Nerwen, sadly your picture doesn't show up on my computer...

Kind of, judging by your pic in the photopage.

Kidding. I'm not that much younger.

EDIT: xed with Pitch. It's a shame how Internet always fails you on the most important moments. ;-) :P

What a memory!

It is Jonathan!

Or rather, one of his friends (also named Jonathan, so how do you tell?)

Seriously: I took that one a year or so ago, right after the Arkham Asylum game. I was meaning to upload it to the game thread– forget why I didn't.

Boromir88 · 11-05-2011, 12:12 PM

Since The Downer had accurately reported, I am no longer with my beloved Llama. If the powers at be, who keep this updated, with a more recent photo, that would be great.

Either with my adorable, lovable puppy (who's no longer really a puppy, but whatever

)

Or at a wedding, where personally, I like looking smashing in tuxes.

Merci beaucoup.

Holy bananas! If you didn't post these two photos in the same post I woud have thought it's different people!

(they both look great

)

Boromir88 · 11-06-2011, 08:56 AM

Thanks G55. It must be the tux and maybe the lighting

Meneltarmacil · 06-19-2012, 06:47 PM

Resurrecting this thread to provide a more current picture of myself. That's Devil's Tower in eastern Wyoming in the background, by the way.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 06-19-2012, 10:39 PM

I bet you wished you could bury me under all that rock, Menel.

It would really be a shame to waste such an epic rock formation on that.

No, I'd just push you off the top of it to your doom.

Holbytlass · 08-17-2013, 11:02 AM

GLAD TO BE BACK!

As of two days ago, we finally have high-speed internet!!
It feels wonderful to be part of technology again. dial-up in the country became unbearable...couldn't download, couldn't see pictures or videos, or you-tube, or facebook, and have been gone from the barrows far too long

now those that knew me awhile ago can finally see what i (and me beautiful family) look like-i'm the mum.

i look forward to haunting more often, meeting new friends, catching up with old friends and joined the newest wolf game, good heavens, i can't believe it's in the hundreds!!

Inziladun · 10-25-2016, 10:19 AM

It occurred to me that the only pic of me here is a few years old.

Here's a current one for the (morbidly) curious: taken during my surgical convalescence after being off work over a week.

Mithalwen · 10-25-2016, 11:59 AM

You should sue your surgeon...they put you back together the wrong way up...

Well, it wasn't cosmetic surgery. I don't know there's anyone skilled enough to help me.

But if the pic shows upside down, I'm flummoxed. It loads right way up when I click it.

Mithalwen · 10-25-2016, 12:30 PM

It does... I will try on the other gadget.... You aren't visiting Nerwen are you...

Yep you are upside down on Android too... maybe it is me. Good pic anyway...

You've discovered Inzil's secret - he's an antipode!

Meanwhile, I just recalled a dream I had way back when where Zil showed up in my physics class with a mop of curly hair. Yeah, maybe not.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 10-25-2016, 07:17 PM

I figured I would post a newer picture of myself here. I think the last photo anyone has seen of me here (besides those I have on facebook) is probably two or more years old. Here is a pic of my boy and me just off the Seward Highway looking out on Turnagain Arm in August. The boy is from South Carolina and this was his first visit to Alaska. I was very happy here. I'm the one with long hair.

You two really look alike, you know. Not everything, but something about your eyes and noses. It's uncanny.

It's a lovely picture.

Meanwhile, I don't think I've changed at all since I posted pictures up, except my hair got a bit straighter.

But am I the only person who sees him like that?
