Archive of Updates to the original Rivendell pages

10/23/09. Finally, updated the Rivendell page. Actually, it’s only updated in terms of upcoming meetings. I also moved some previous listings to the “older topics” page, or whatever it’s called. One of these days I need to clean up the rest of the page with lots of old info, and expired links, etc. I’m starting to learn to use a new page editor, as I no longer have easy access to a system that will run PageMill.

3/27/09. Updated the Rivendell page. Actually, I’ve omitted noting a couple of interim updates since the previous listing.

9/17/08. Updated the Rivendell page–for quite a while I was unable to access my webspace, and I continue to have some technical difficulties, but I do have a work-around. I hope Ill be able to keep up better ove rhte next few months.

4/22/08. Updated the Rivendell page, and the Second Foundationpage.

7/22/97. FINALLY!! Thanks to Ellie Farrell & Peter Clark for assistance in diagnosing the problem I’ve had with displaying graphics in these pages. Some but not all, wouldn’t display properly. It wasn’t PageMill’s fault at all, or html, it was the loading of the graphics into the server. For some reason, Fetch just doesn’t do the job right with some graphics. The four graphics that I knew of , on the Rivendell page, Bird & Baby, Tolkien Thoughts, and Mythopoeic Society pages should now display properly (I hope). Visit Peter’s home page, or pages on the English Department site to see some of his work. Ellie does the Official Mythopoeic Society page, by the way. Oh, and I updated the Activity Calendar with new info for the Colorado DG.
