Ataahua Forum Admin / Moderator Jul 8 2013, 7:23pm Views: 792 Your link doesn't work but I've made MotS's clickable. Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..." Dwarves: "Pretty rings..." Men: "Pretty rings..." Sauron: "Mine's better." "Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

DanielLB Immortal Jul 8 2013, 7:26pm Views: 807 Well ... that's embarrassing. Any idea what might have happened Ataahua? It was working before I made the edit (adding how to make a link clickable). Promise! Coming soon! The first TORn Amateur Symposium, starts Sunday 21st July in the Reading Room.

Ataahua Forum Admin / Moderator Jul 8 2013, 7:36pm Views: 779 I'm not sure, sorry Daniel. When I make links I use the link tool in the tool bar (the chain icon on the far right, just above the message box) - it's the foolproof cheat's way of live-linking. Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."

Alassëa Eruvande Valinor Jul 8 2013, 7:51pm Views: 802 That was awesome! Hooray for Samm! I am SMAUG! I kill when I wish! I am strong, strong, STRONG! My armor is like tenfold shields! My teeth like swords! My claws, spears! The shock of my tail, a thunderbolt! My wings, a hurricane! And my breath, death!

flameofudun Lorien Jul 8 2013, 7:51pm Views: 798 I ended up just google searching for it and it was a good read Not much derived from it because she had to sign confidentiality papers, but she still said things about how thranduil has a great sword, the acting was spectacular, the cast was super nice, and goes in to great detail with that.... But, she does tell us about bombur's fighting spoon, and how thranduil has two crowns, one for his kingdom and the other for battle ''We are very dangerous over short distances'' -Gimli

MomoftheShire Rivendell Jul 8 2013, 8:41pm Views: 771 I know! But it was just precious! And all that "teen" speak. Never did decipher some of her acronyms! Can't wait to see the pics!

Silverlode Forum Admin / Moderator Jul 8 2013, 8:42pm Views: 758 I played around with it a bit and I think... the problem was that you somehow got an extra "http://" in your URL. But your examples didn't have it, so your tutorial was correct. One other thing to be aware of: The instructions you gave are for Markup links, not HTML, so if you're using Basic Editor, you have to make sure that you select "Markup" or "Markup and HTML" for your post style or it will just show all the code and not be clickable. Since I use Advanced Editor, I use the link (chain) icon for my URLs. 1. Highlight the text you want to use for your link, i.e. "Click here" 2. Click the Link icon 3. Delete the existing "http://" in the popup box and paste in your URL 4. Click Submit And there you go.

DanielLB Immortal Jul 8 2013, 8:56pm Views: 740 Thanks Silverlode :-) Thank you for having a fiddle (and editing it so it works). Maybe I typed in the extra http:// without thinking. I've always preferred basic editor, only so I can see the code. And I use Chrome, so Advanced Editor is absent. Thanks mods! As for the article, I thought it was great. What a lovely experience. I'd turn in to a screaming fan if it was me, as well. Coming soon! The first TORn Amateur Symposium, starts Sunday 21st July in the Reading Room.

dernwyn Forum Admin / Moderator Jul 9 2013, 12:15am Views: 714 She got her earring hung up in Thorin's hair? LOL! That entire story is so sweet, and she'd even made cards for much of the cast - what a great kid she is, I wish her all the best in her recovery! (..."It was truly a blast"? Oh gosh, are you her aunt?) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I desired dragons with a profound desire"

elaen32 Gondor Jul 9 2013, 9:01am Views: 640 What a great story! Sounds beyond amazing- I'm sure there are quite a number of us here who are just the teensiest bit envious of Samm's experiences in Wellington! She deserves every minute of it and I wish her health and happiness for the future. Coming soon!- The first TORn Amateur Symposium, starts Sunday 21st July in the Reading Room.

demnation Rohan Jul 10 2013, 11:16am Views: 550 What a sweet, heartwarming story! It's nice to be reminded that something (relatively) insignificant as a book/movie about a small person with hairy feet can have a real impact in someones life. My Sam Gamgee is indeed a reflexion of the English soldier, of the privates and batmen I knew in the 1914 war, and recognized as so far superior to myself- J.R.R. Tolkien

grammaboodawg Immortal Jul 10 2013, 4:32pm Views: 534 Fantastic! I love it when people discover how sincerely gracious and generous the cast, crew, and entire NZ family are! Samm has had an adventure that will never be matched. PLUS she got to go to Wellington!!! WOOHOO!! :D *warm applause* Very Very Cool! 4th draft of TH:AUJ Geeky Observation List - May 1, 2013 "There is more in you of good than you know, child of the kindly West." I'm SO HAPPY these new films take me back to that magical world!! TIME Google Calendar TORn's Geeky Observations Lists (updated soon)
