Hello and welcome to The Old Forest , a template created by Six Shooter Media for the Open Web Design contest titled "Favourite Book". "The Old Forest" is the title of a chapter in the first book of the Lord of the Rings trilogy; The Fellowship of the Ring. It happens to be my favourite chapter in the whole of this first book for its wonderfully colourful descriptions of the beginning of the Hobbits adventure. They leave the Shire and also meet Tom Bombadil, whoc rescues them in this chapter which sadly was left out of the motion picture.

The image in the header is in fact a stock photo which I found on sxc.hu. I simply took it, cropped it a bit and changed the hue and saturation to acheive an effect which I feel makes the shot look like the edge of the Old Forest as described in the book and how I picture it in my head.

Hi! My names Jay and I'm a 20 year old web designer from England. My main projects are conducted through my website Six Shooter Media, but I (obviously) also enjoy creating Open Source web templates for general use! You can keep a check on my free templates here which is probably a link worth bookmarking as my templates appear there a couple of weeks before OWD/OSWD due to the design queues.

OK, here I'll just put some example html elements that you will most probably be using in your blog/web site.

Blockquote Example

"But the Forest is queer. Everything in it is very much more alive, more aware of what is going on, so to speak, than things are in the Shire. And the trees do not like strangers. They watch you. They are usually content merely to watch you, as long as daylight lasts, and don't do much. Occasionally the most unfriendly ones may drop a branch, or stick a root out, or grasp at you with a long trailer. But at night things can be most alarming, or so I am told."
