I am just starting a new members picture page and I wanted to make sure that I get everyone who would like his or her picture added. The new page will be hosted on my new domain as I have a much larger storage capacity; my old one had only 10 Meg.
If you would like you picture added please send a scanned image to my email at jwahl@bigpond.com

Also I will use these images to create a Barrow Downs family Tree so please include your member Number.

The images will not be thumbnails but full size photos, to do better justice to the Downs members.

Are you transferring the pics on the current page or are you going to continue that page?

Lush
12-22-2002, 08:47 PM
Yeah, I was going to ask that too, because the one of me on the old page is rather dated...I also appear to have no cheekboes. smilies/eek.gif I'd rather send you another one.


P.S. I think it's a wonderful thing that you're doing this. Thank you for not being lazy! smilies/smile.gif

I can use the old pictures or if people like they can send me new pictures. Also some people ask for the pics to be removed but this is time consuming and I would prefer to leave the new page as it is once it is complete. It is easy to add pics but harder to remove them as the order of the images changes which disrupts the linking.

I do not mind doing things for my Downs family, which is how I feel about you all, my extended family. Saying that, I want lots of Christmas gifts from you all. smilies/wink.gif

Are you transferring the pics on the current page or are you going to continue that page?

The old page will be removed once the new page is complete.

I see! Well, It will be a while. Miz Lobelia, Maril and I are planning to meet in January and see the Movie. If any of us remembers we will take a picture this time!

This is a very kind thing for you to do! I feel like you are all family, too.

Is that really Lindolirian's hair?

Um, I have question. Is there any way I can cut a picture on my comp to where it doesn't have all of my cousins on it? Because I don't have a scanner, but my uncle gave my a cd of pics from Christmas 2002 and the only pics I am in that I am willing to show are with my whole family. Or can you just point out which one is me if I can't?

Oh, and Losthuniel, the middle girl in that pic of you...who is that? Because she looks so very much familiar to me.

Gorwingel do you live in Spokane? I live on the sound in Port Orchard.

Thenamir When my daughter saw your picture she said "Santa has a sword!"

I really should get a picture of me and my husband. That would make more sense than a pic of my brother. It's just that my husband (Greycloak) is always the photographer and never appears in pictures. We need to teach someone how to use our camera.

We always get photos like that in our family, I had to stick two photos together once to get all of my family members in it.

OMG, ok, that's not the best picture of me I've seen. And for some reason I look so young in it! I am only 15, but I look like I'm 10 or something. Whoa...too bad I don't have a better pic I can put on there.

But hey, great job with the site Alkanoonian! It looks great.

Alkanoonion
12-31-2002, 02:00 AM
I like your picture, it has a wholesome feel to it, smilies/smile.gif and as for looking like you are ten in 5-10 years you will wish that you still looked as young so enjoy your youth. smilies/wink.gif

I still have lots of room on the page so get your pics in and if you like I can also host a Barrow pet’s page. smilies/smile.gif

Is it possible for me to get an active member list with members Numbers for our Downs Family tree?

To get your picture added send your picture to my e-mail
Jwahl@bigpond.com or Thain@breeunderbreehill.com

I also need all active members who would like to be included in the Downs, but have not yet sent in a pic or message for the Family tree to message/e-mail me with their Picture and or member number for inclusion in the family tree. I am looking at starting the Tree this weekend so act fast. smilies/smile.gif

Well, I have develop the film first. My mom's getting a scanner soon so once the film is developed, I'll scan them. I hope the pics turns out ok. It'll be nice to display our TTT pride by the Christmas tree :D.
Brinniel looks very much like someone I know too.
Really? Well, actually that's not the first time someone's told me that. I never thought I had "one of those faces."
Or perhaps the world is smaller than we think. ;)

Ok don’t be shy smilies/wink.gif we have lots more room for your pictures, I have two more members to add tonight but I need more. Can the people who have not sent a picture or submitted their member number for the family tree please send me your name and member number ASAP. (You do not want to miss out of this great opportunity to have you name immortalised)

Out of 3000+ members I only have 15 names and I do not want to have to search for each member, as my time is limited.

Alkanoonion
01-06-2003, 03:35 PM
The plan is to have a great big image of a tree with all the Barrow Downs members names listed from the first member to the last, Can be used as a method of identifying / remembering past members and current Downs members. I am going to hunt through the old topics to find members names and number but due to my limited time available and the fact that the downs has over 3000 members The Family tree will take a little longer to complete than first anticipated. smilies/rolleyes.gif

01-06-2003, 07:19 PM
I think that the reason the picture of me doesn't work is because it was taken offline a while ago, so that might be the problem if you were linking to another URL. It was taken offline because I was fourteen in the picture and am somewhat beyond that now (how much beyond will be left open for speculation). Honestly, Alkanoonion, I don't know where you got it because it is so not the pic I sent you so long ago. (;
This (http://gdi.keenspace.com/kate.jpg) is an accurate representation of my current visage.

Alkanoonion

01-08-2003, 12:38 AM
Alkanoonion, just want to extend a thank you for doing all that work with the pictures. It looks really nice.

Thank you, Rae! smilies/smile.gif. I meant to do it a while ago, have just been lazy about getting pictures scanned in. Hope my face didn't come as too much of a shock to you smilies/evil.gif . That picture was taken last June in Spain (On the Alhambra walls, looking down on Granada, to be specific). There were a lot of other ones but in most of them you either couldn't see my face very well or I was making silly expressions at my husband, since he was holding the camera.

Gorwingel, if it matters, by your name I had somehow thought of you being/looking older. (Nothing wrong with that, of course - then you'll have had 20 years to read the Sil and engage in those lofty arguments that the rest of us can only dream of engaging in).

Raefindel I talked about my parents because they are sometimes overprotective, and when I first started posting on this site my mom was kind of worried (she didn't want me finding any weird people or anything like that) and we are also very close (which is a good thing). I am going to be 17 on January 14, but I don't go many places on my own.
Additionally there is nothing wrong with 13-15 year olds, just as long as every post is not "I love Orlando Bloom", "Legolas is a hotty", etc. smilies/cool.gif

Gorwingel, You look older that 17! I understand your parents concern. My husband was nervous about me meeting fellow Barrow Downers and I'm 37! To date, I've met 2 fellow Barrow-Downers (soon to be 3) and I haven't met a shister yet.

Ithaeliel, that's a Beautiful Picture. Did you make your own dress?

I wish I could meet some fellow BD-ers, but I don't think their are many around here.

It is a pretty dress, Ithaeliel.

Your (is it yours?) dog looks so sweet, Gorwingel!! I like cats better though smilies/biggrin.gif. Amanduial looks just like my best friend! In fact, lots of the younger BD members remind me of my friends. smilies/biggrin.gif

Very good job, Alkanoonion!

Unfortunately no; I'm an American who likes to pretend to be a Scot smilies/frown.gif But I gives Australia a big hug because I LOVE IT!

The strange thing is, I might have been an Aussie, because my mom and dad almost moved to Perth before I was born.

Raefindel and Aylwen- Thank you! I didn't make the dress; my mother did it, in fact she sewed the last stitches the very same day that picture was taken! I love it; I'm going to wear it to the RotK premiere too if I haven't got a BD t-shirt by then.

On my list on my work computer I now have over 350 members names but I have not updated the web page, as I would like to add it all at the same time. I aim to have the list complete in two weeks. Then the next step is the cut and pasting onto a family tree image. It will be a lot of work but I think that it would be a helpful resource for members and it will hopefully look great. A true dedication to the many members who have helped shaped the Downs into arguably the number one Tolkien Site on the web. smilies/biggrin.gif

BTW Aylwen Dreamsong my old list was hand typed in making mistakes a certainty therefore the new list has been copied directly from the forum to eliminate errors.

I was just wondering Alk, Not that it has any bearing whatsoever anyway, but what about cases of family members? I know Thenamir said his daughters are on this forum and my husband occasionally shows himslef as well (Greycloak, #1843) How will that be reflected in your family tree? Or will it?

Alkanoonion
01-17-2003, 11:22 PM
Good question, as it is not common knowledge as to who is related to who I had not planned on portraying family members together but if members would like to be together on the family tree they will have to tell me who their family members are. smilies/smile.gif

GreatWarg
01-20-2003, 03:35 PM
Alkanoonion -- An excellent idea! it would be a wonder to see how you squeeze all the members of the Downs onto one family tree! I just humbly ask that I am not placed in the 'Long Gone' pile, for as you see, I am unmistakably still here in my Barrow, though I have been gone for long draughts.

May the blessings of the Valar go with you on your Quest.

burrahobbit
01-22-2003, 01:23 PM
No, those three are all wrong. BW should be 1, then there are like 2 guys that don't post, then me, then one or two more, then Balin999, and then I don't remember. Compare when I registered to when Sharku registered.

If you like you can email me with the correct order that people joined, smilies/smile.gif personally I have a limited amount of time to work on this project in my lunch hr mainly. To save on confusion I was just going by the displayed member name and number.

To help clarify, the Family tree is not based on members personal family but our big downs family all 3000+ and was intended as a visual method for people to know who all the members are. And as a resource to remove doubled up member accounts for BW.

Actually, I'm not a pilot, but I'm working for a newspaper and on that day when that pic was made I spent a whole day at the army for a story and I had the chance to fly with a helicopter so of course I said yes.
If I had thought about the fact that it was a helicopter of the AUSTRIAN army maybe I wouldn't have been so quick with my decision. smilies/biggrin.gif (btw it was the second time for me flying with a heli)

On the previous board made for pictures, before Alkaoonion changed his page, it said that picture was of Erendis 11 years ago.

Dear Aman,

The messed up girl is Raye. I don't figure she look's very nice afther tree day's of beating.

Elalia: I don't know that. They say I'm plotting plan's and am about to stab the photagrapher. THat's pretty violent won't you say. I would not stab her because she is my mother.

Hey Faye Took, you met Dominic Monaghan, and you put it in your signature.
Does that mean since I met Ian McKellen, can I do the same thing too (I really did meet him it is just that I did not get a picture of him with me) just a thought

Though if I got meet Dominic, Billy or any of the other hobbit actors I would do the same thing too.

The lighting's not that great (your face is slightly shadowed) in the picture, but you don't look like a geek. You look just fine next to a celebrity. :)
I fear what I might look like photographed with a celebrity (I'm not a photogenic person, unfortunately).
That's pretty lucky of you to meet Dom, I must say. How did you come by meeting him, anyways?

Hehe. Well heres the story (well, shortened).

It all started out with a tree! smilies/biggrin.gif

In my town, the city wants to build over 21,600 homes! Seriously! Well as the developers began their building, a 400 tree had been standing in the way for a 4 lane highway to be built. Of course the developers saw the tree as just any ordonary Oak. A brave man named John Quigly saw what was about to happen and emidiatly took action. He went and sat in her for 71 days. Last month (January) he was forced to come out of the tree. This didn't stop him from trying to keep the tree alive. Well see my friend Sarah is a friend of Johns and John has been a huge LotR fan, and him and Sarah would talk about it a lot. A couple of friends of Dom, and Billy had come down to the tree and John got their phone numbers and talked to them about coming down to the tree. So last Monday (January 28th), a court session was going to be held about the tree and Dom showed up! John had told us before so we could bring stuff for him to sign. It was so awesome! So thats about it!

For your information, I already have 3 cameras, but since I'm always the one behind....

Besides, I just bought new brushes and canvas which means I can't even afford to eat much, so there's no way I'll even think about paying for a photo.
