can you recommend a good (cheap) HTML editor?Sure, I use Hippie 98. It's $39.95 for a single license, but it's shareware, so you can download it and try it out for free first. Then if you don't like it you're out nothing; if you do like it, just pay your money and they email you the registration key.

Then I'll want new fixtures for the bathroom, a skylight, new floor....How does it feel to want? ;-)
Yeah, I could use some new fixtures, too...my bathtub is an old claw footed thing, which at LEAST needs paint (someone painted the outside kind of a goldenrod color!), and since I'm not exactly Martha Stewart, I'd almost rather just have a normal modern tub (with a real shower!).
To: HairOfTheDog
Thank you... what does Smeagol have on... a loin cloth or a breech cloth?
To: RosieCotton
How does it feel to want? ;-) Then I want a screened porch and a new deck....landscaping....this is getting expensive!
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Thanks. I'll check it out.
To: Overtaxed
I want to finish off my basement, and fix it all up as a music studio, with some basic recording equiment. Let's see...just needs lighting, some sort of dehumidifier part of the year, flooring, a couple thousand dollars worth of microphones and such...
To: RosieCotton
a couple thousand dollars worth of microphones and such...No big deal!

I can't capture a better image of the wargs than this little one that is at the official site, they are moving too fast!:
There are some other insights to changes... Rather than the hiding place behine the falls, it looks like the Hobbits are taken to Osgiliath according to the caption with this pic:
Faramir takes the hobbits to the besieged city of Osgiliath.

I am not sure I know the distinction between a loin cloth and a breech cloth, but let me tell you, I am thankful he has something on!
To: HairOfTheDog
I am too.. it gets cold in Mordor. Breechcloth... think Indian (at least in the movies) Loincloth... think Tarzan. Does that help!
To: John Farson
Sorry for all the one-way conversation John! HI!
(FYI, everyone who doesn't know, our founder John Farson got in trouble and can't post, but we can ping him!)
You brought up something interesting in the Yahoo Hole that I want to share here!

I've been lurking on the Hobbit Hole threads like I usually do. :) The trailer is impressive -- even at such a low bitrate. I can't wait until the higher quality Quicktime versions are available.

AICN talkback: "Those CGI Mountains look soooooo fake! Howard Shore's score sounds like MIDI on a Commodore 64! New Zealand is a hoax! The whole country is CGI! How embarrassing!" --Jaguart
First of, Jaguart is a moron ;~D, but secondly, there was a little blurb over at TORN that explained the music in the trailer... It was not all from the actual Howard Shore score...

Trailer Score Details!

Robert from the Italian LOTR-site Caltanet.it emailed us with the information that the second part of the music used in the new trailer is the main theme of Requiem for a Dream soundtrack, composed by Clint Mansell and the Kronos Quartet. So it's not from Howard Shore's new soundtrack for TTT, just so you know...

What a ring tailed doofus!
I'm at my mom's house, waiting for Matthew to finish his co-ops. I think you're doing a great job with the pictures caps!
I've just been in a state all morning. I feel so bad about Frodo and especially Sam, who's essentially being left all alone by a person who is more and more becoming overcome with evil. The part where Frodo is wandering off into that water demonstrates that...Frodo doesn't even consider Sam...he can't.
To: 2Jedismom
I am in a state too... ;~D
Luckily, I have the day off today so I am not even trying to be productive! I just hope I remember to go to the feed store so the ponies have something to eat tonight!
To: HairOfTheDog
The ponies would appreciate it...
To: HairOfTheDog
I just hope I remember to go to the feed store so the ponies have something to eat tonight! Which reminds me....get Fancy Feast for the kitty....or else!
To: HairOfTheDog
I think it's why that little bit with Sam grasping Frodo's hand is so distressing to me... The Ring is stealing Frodo away...
Ugh, the whole thing is going to be emotional for me. I'm awfully attached to these characters. And it's like what Jen said, about Bilbo getting old...you know it happens, but it's hard to see it. I know what's going to happen and it sure is hard to watch.
To: Overtaxed
Then I'll want new fixtures for the bathroom, a skylight, new floor....Ruh, roh!! That's the problem with beginning to remodel; it's hard to know when to stop!!
To: SuziQ
it's hard to know when to stop!! LOL When the money runs out!
To: Overtaxed
They've got 18 pages of frame by frame on TORn. Thank heavens for my mom's cable!
