1. You have to be a fan of hobbit culture. If you're not, I'm not sure why you would be considering joining at all.

2. To join, you MUST supply your e-mail address and your country of residence.

3. Use your real name when joining.

4. If you have a webpage, you must link back to http://merilin.net/shire. If you don't link here, I won't list your webpage on the members page either. If you don't have a webpage, you're still free to join, of course.

5. When linking back, do NOT direct link my codes. This means that you have to download (right-click and save as) the code you want to use, and then upload it to your own webspace.
