Alright, I swore I would never do this, but I decided - what the heck - and asked my boyfriend (the blond) to take a picture of me with the digital.

He said: not in that outfit.

Remind me to get a less fashion-conscious boyfriend, lol!

Pix coming soon, once my outfit is "approved." Alk, does your offer still stand?

Raefindel 08-14-2002 11:31 PM

Woo Hoo! Maril! What were you wearing? You know what would make my husband say that? My kilt! I wear it to church occasionally just to watch him try to hide form me.

Alk, that's so nice of you to arrange all the pictures that way. You all look so young and pretty! Except the guys, you all look so young and handsome.

I'll have to buy me a vat of "Oil of Old Lady" and work on a "real" pic soon. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Melephelwen 08-15-2002 08:04 AM

Akh! This is a bit scary, as nobody are looking as i pictured them to!!!
*running of to her foto-archives to find a good picture*
Nothing good, but a few thing tolerateable(?).
*running again to find someone to scan it*
Be ready to cover your eyes when I return!!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

The Barrow-Wight 08-15-2002 08:08 AM

To answer Raefindel's question, I just turned 37 in July.

Raefindel 08-15-2002 09:48 AM

Happy Birthday, Barrow Wight.

Alkanoonion, that is a GREAT page! You ROCK BABY!

Birdland, I bathe in "oil of old lady" myself. Not sure if it's working, I don't get into the theaters for a child's price anymore. That one was working well into my 20's! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Maikadilwen 08-15-2002 09:54 AM

Well, neither of you look old. Uhm... not that you ARE old. Erh... I better shut it now before I get in trouble... [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Raefindel 08-15-2002 10:21 AM

You won't offend me,Maikadilwen. I think I like being older. (good thing, huh, 'cause there's not much I can do about it!) People are finally treating me like a thinking adult. IT'S ABOUT TIME! Last year I went on a field trip with my son's class (12 year olds) and the other parents were telling me what to do like one of the kids! Every morning I put on wrinkle-cream and wonder if I'm doing myself a dis-service.

Brinniel 08-15-2002 09:43 PM

Thanks for that page, Alk. It's so much easier and less time consuming to look at all the pics at once.

I think my dad is planning on bringing home the digital camera again, so I should have a pic soon, hopefully.

Ithaeliel 08-16-2002 09:19 PM

Woe is me! I cannot find my dad's camera... and then when I DO find it, I shan't know how to load pictures from it! Oh, alas for poor Ithaeliel Elvensong! *Weeps*

In plain English, I might not be getting my pic up for a few days, so be patient and keep this thread alive for me!

Duramarthiel 08-17-2002 08:50 PM

Hi guys, I know I am a bit of a Newbie... But what the heck. Heres a shot of me taken about a Month ago... (rather small)

Maikadilwen 08-19-2002 08:41 AM

Oooh, Alk, you've really caught me from my worst side there..... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] But true folks, look closely at that picture and you see what I look like in the morning. And the personality fits as well... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
I promise I'll try to find a pic soon. I've got a dig cam. but hooray, I can't find the cable so I can't upload any pics. But I've even asked my ex (sicko!!!) if HE has any pics of me. No idea why he should've kept any, but you never know (sicko!!!).... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Go ahead. LAUGH.

Galadrie1 08-19-2002 05:33 PM

My teeth are not yellow, and my eyes are not blue, they're brown.
La la la...
*mumble mumble* i don't think that link works...

NN10, how old are you?

I'm 14.

Gorothlammothiel 08-19-2002 05:57 PM

Galadrie1 you're link still does not work, it reads "We're sorry, but this page is currently unavailable for viewing".

Just thought I would let you know...

Galadrie1 08-19-2002 06:34 PM

*grumble grumble* ummmmmmm...........
http://geocities.com/sheela_site/photo-3.html
..try that...my picture's the top one, but it's all squashed and weird looking... *grumble*
and on my computer the link i posted before works if you don't click on the URL, you have to copy and paste it.

Tigerlily Gamgee 08-19-2002 07:42 PM

gollum*elf*pup ~ I used to take riding lessons! I miss it so! I got as far as jumping one hurdle... I wish I could afford to take them again, I still have all of my accesories! So, I am not laughing at your pic, because I have many of myself in about the same pose [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Galadrie1 08-19-2002 08:00 PM

gollum*elf*pup, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that picture of you!

Gimli Son Of Gloin 08-19-2002 08:45 PM

Ith, I just relized. On the last page oyu said you have agoraphobia <em>and</em> claustrophobia. I presume you do know agorophobia is the fear of the market(wide open spaces) and claustrophobia is the fear of enclosed spaces. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] Aylwen, I do not have pgognophobia, but my facial hair pores do [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Mr. BW. You're only 37?!? I kinda realized that from your picture, but you're a lot younger than I thought. Do I still have to call you Mister if you're only 37?

Galadrie1 08-19-2002 08:54 PM

Gimli, how old are you??? If you are above or below the age of 105,087,346,529 years, you should treat Mr. BW with as much respect as possible! And if you're below the age of.. uh.. 25 I can't see any reason for you to be worried about your ability to grow a beard....even if you think you'd look better with one.... you can always draw one on with markers! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

NazgulNumberTen 08-19-2002 08:58 PM

or use barber hair and superglue [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Ithaeliel 08-19-2002 09:01 PM

Gimli, like I said it's a weird combination. If in wide open spaces, I feel intimidated and alone, and if I am forced to dwell in tight spaces, I have chronic insomnia (had to move my desk out of my very small room because of it [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]). See? I have both. Mild cases, but I still have 'em.

Neh, still can't find/use my dad's digicam. Darn...

Galadrie1 08-19-2002 09:36 PM

Did the last link I posted work for anyone? Just wondering...

NN10: hair and glue would work, but markers are more fun! Oh! You can create realistic-looking stubble by putting mascara on your face... but it's not as much fun as markers [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

[ August 19, 2002: Message edited by: Galadrie1 ]

NazgulNumberTen 08-19-2002 09:42 PM

hmmmmmmm you seem to know alot about fake beards... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Galadrie1 08-19-2002 09:44 PM

I do stage make-up for myself and others... beards come up a lot. Actually, I never use markers on people's faces. eyebrow pencils work much better -- it washes out easier.

Correction: I never use markers for beards. I've drawn on lots of people's faces with markers [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Ith: If you haven't yet noticed, I PMed you a solution to your dig camera problem. (well sort of)

Losthuniel 08-20-2002 09:43 AM

Gollum*elf*pup, where do you ride? It looks so much like my old stable its scaring me.

heres my page: Losth's Pics

Galadrie1 08-20-2002 09:50 AM

i don't want to be a nag, but i have to know: did my link work for anyone???

Losthuniel: You don't look at all like how I pictured you!!!

Losthuniel 08-20-2002 09:51 AM

is that a good thing, Galadriel?

Galadrie1 08-20-2002 09:55 AM

Don't worry, Losthuniel! I pictured you having long dark hair, that's all!

here it is again, the link to my picture (the top pic on the page)

[ August 20, 2002: Message edited by: Galadrie1 ]

Maikadilwen 08-20-2002 10:01 AM

The last link you posted worked for me, Galadrie1.

Losth, you are VERY pretty, but those bracers just brought back some VERY painful memories... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] 9 years of pain and I lost my fangs... *sniff* [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Evil dentists. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

How come the Barrow-Wight is the only admin. with the guts to show himself? Go BW. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I'd really like to see Sharku... I've got a bet up on something there and there's a BD t-shirt at stake. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

And we want to see some more guys here!!!

Losthuniel 08-20-2002 10:07 AM

*blushes very red* thanks Maika. oh dear, whats an evil creature without her fangs? (btw, excuse the, ah, army rations in my braces. i had just eaten dinner at the time)

Galadriel, the link worked.

[ August 20, 2002: Message edited by: Losthuniel ]

Galadrie1 08-20-2002 10:36 AM

ack, that picture of me is terrible! I keep finding things that are wrong with it. I think I must be telling the "photographer" to hurry up because my mouth is crooked, like I'm mumbling something...

I agree, Maika! Let's get some more admins! and guys! and maybe some guy admins!

Losthuniel, your kitten is sooo adorable!!!!!! Aw! Oh, I saw the first picture of you (well, all 3 of you) a while ago. Your very pretty!

Galadrie1, couldn't see your pic! Oh well, I'll try again later.
