Yeah, and look fake...No offense.

***Earniel*** · 11-05-2005, 03:24 PM

Pfft, speak for yourself!

trolls' bane · 11-05-2005, 03:31 PM

Ach!!! How did you know!!?!?!

***RÃan*** · 11-09-2005, 08:48 PM

Here's a nice link: here

littleadanel · 11-14-2005, 04:44 AM

*looks at link*

*jaws drop*

AWEsome!
Thanx for posting, RÃ*an. Whenever I decide to dive into Tengwar on the net, in a VERY short time I get overwhelmed by the information and need to do something else [to escape cyberspace wanting to swallow me

] ... seems I always miss some of the best parts.

trolls' bane · 11-15-2005, 12:27 AM

Does anyone know where I can download the Tengwar font?

littleadanel · 11-17-2005, 03:01 AM

Hmm, so yesterday I had a TERRible lecture. It could easily win an award like "Most Boring Lecture of the Ethnography Faculty". Or come in as a close second. Meh.
And what it has to do with the Tengwar thread... well, this is the result of it.

You can see some of my close-to-illegible handwriting as well.

Oh, and the fonts... Only ones I could find were not really Tengwar fonts. I mean Tengwar-shaped characters, but without any logical pattern. Definitely not Tolkien's Tengwar.

trolls' bane · 11-18-2005, 10:51 PM

Well, it can't get any worse than mine!

***Earniel*** · 11-19-2005, 05:48 AM

I practiced a little more and I wrote what I call a rosetta. I suggest troll's bane and littleadanel don't look because it's *gasp* on lined paper.

The one who can spot the archaeogical reference in the name gets a cookie.

katya · 11-19-2005, 07:22 AM

Archaeological reference in the name? You mean "rosetta"? Because the rosetta stone was written in a couple different languages and thus scholars were able to figure out one of them (Egyptian?). Your beautiful paper is written in romaji and runes and tengwar? Is that what you meant? I`ll accept the cookie either way.

***Earniel*** · 11-19-2005, 09:37 AM

Very good! The cookie is all yours.

***RÃan*** · 11-19-2005, 01:22 PM

What a great idea, EÃ¤rniel! Your tengwar gets prettier and prettier!

Oooh! Lined paper! How unorthodox! I'm reporting you to the Tengwar police.

What kinda cookie?

***RÃan*** · 11-19-2005, 04:30 PM

"Tengwar police" *snerk*

(EÃ¤rniel - just put the lined paper UNDER the unlined one! and we'll NEVER KNOW!!)

trolls' bane · 11-19-2005, 04:33 PM

Hey! That's a good idea! That clear-is paper is pretty strong, too.

Pfff, Tengwar purist.

I don't see why I should start use unlined paper just to please you esthetically spoilt people, while I have lined paper in abundance.

The kind you are not getting.

trolls' bane · 11-19-2005, 05:43 PM

Oh! I hate that kind, unless I happen to get it.

trolls' bane · 11-20-2005, 12:19 AM

Here we go. Here's a Tengwar font download. No guarentee on how "Canon" it is.

katya · 11-20-2005, 12:23 AM

Yatta! I got a cookie! Thank you so much!

Good morning, TB. (Even though it`s past one pm here. I woke up late.) You wanna know what kind it is?

trolls' bane · 11-20-2005, 12:37 AM

What? If you say peanut butter, you won't last long.
