<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Acceber] It's elegant, and fairly simple; most of her own biography is actually in wiki pages linked from her house. She used the pseudo-HTML to create a pleasant description.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Adaman]  Has a short, concise description, fragmented by banners - dividers, each of them explained by a short paragraph. And he has very good art displayed in the image slots.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Delladreing] Ah, Dela... Where should I start? Of course she uses dividers and graphics, of course her house looks good, but besides that, her house is fun, interesting and intelligent. Pity it never changes.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[grey wanderer] She makes splendid use of the Elftown Graphics.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Ham] Well organised and interesting, good use of the graphics, easy to read. 
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg> [Jaraq] His house contains two paragraphs speaking of his life and personality, few rules, and some graphics to make all this pleasant for the eye. An example of how to make a short description look good and personal.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg> [Jitter] Nicely structured and decorated, easy to read, lots of wikis to check. And, bonus, the visitors can also check how her previous description looked like (very good, I tell you).
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Joakim] Another Elftowner featured on the MainStreet, and for good reasons. He surely knows that “aesthetics” is more than a 10 letters word beginning with “a”, and his house reflects this. And he’s cute too.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Kiddalee] She doesn't talk about herself much here, but her bio is full of relevant lists: rules, wikis, updates, and other web participation.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Kelaria] Has a loveable house, full of colours and images, a joy for the eye. Bravo, Nancy!
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Linderel] Very creative; has poetic descriptions of herself and some illustrations to make the house feel real, plus links in their respective places.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg> [NOOOPENicely spaced description, sometimes ironical, but always pleasant, lots of wikis (that you should check) and badges. M has also been featured on the MainStreet – any wonder why?
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Mirime] Instead of crowding her description with picture after picture, she has built a wiki-page with her artwork on it.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Synsae] Containing a good bunch of stuff, from funny rules to "What do we learn from horror movies", this RPGer-soldier-hockey lover's house is a mirror of his real room. Sports, army, games, movies - the house of a 24 years old man, and yet standing out.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg> [Saray] The loveable lover of [Trennas] has a house that can make you laugh your ass off (check the “you might want to reconsider” banner). She obviously likes dominating, but you can’t disobey her (because she is loveable, and too fun). Lots of wikis for her visitors. Go check.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[shadowfire09] Bulleted lists make the reading snappy and fast paced, and the Elftown Graphics are well used.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[windowframe] Another artist’s house, and a proof that horizontal liners are as good as any graphics. Elegant in its simplicity, friendly, I enjoyed reading it although it’s not a short description.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg> [Silver Wind] A house divided in a very interesting way: the mailbox, the door, the hall, the game room, the atelier, the living room and the library. Well chosen graphics and a good use of the pseudo-HTML .
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Sunny Silverunicorn] The house of an artist. Unique and surprising though short, with links to all her art. Great art, if you ask me.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Stratakus] Organised and easy to follow.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[The Coffee-Prophet] Besides an interesting description, he put up banners for wikis like Safe zone, Take Elftown back or Keep Elftown Shallow Free, which is always appreciated. His house is not crowded with unnecessary things.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg>[Trennas] And here we are, on the domain of the adorable pirate/ vampire/ werewolf/ cat Trennas. He is fun (too fun), he is an artist, he is a writer, he is unpredictable, he will catch you and make you one of his fans. A great Elftowner with a great house.
<img:http://elftown.eu/img/drawing/80746_1099418015.jpg> [Wunjo*] If her description was a real house, I’d imagine it in the colonial style: large, simple, bright, only containing the strictly necessary furniture, and though elegant. There are also lots of links to wikis for you people to click on.

2006-02-01 [Kiddalee]: Eep! Sorry, [Ham]!

2006-02-01 [Ham]: I'm used to it, as long as no one makes the green eggs and Ham joke or tries to eat me, I'll survive ^.~

2006-02-01 [Acceber]: *tries to eat [Ham]* =D

2006-02-01 [Ham]: *evades with much past experience*

2006-02-01 [Acceber]: ^^ I love your horse (in your house)

2006-02-01 [Ham]: *Gasps* A compliment. Thank you, I love oil pastels, you have many happy accidents that magically turn into muscle tone...

2006-02-01 [Acceber]: I like oil pastels, but I always make a mess! :)

2006-02-01 [Ham]: So do I, usually on the drawing, which isn't fun. Strangely, generally around the eye area for some reason, although I have been known to leave smears of oil pastel all over my door and blame someone elese ^.~

2006-02-01 [Acceber]: Good idea! Blame someone else, hmmmm I will reflect on this =) But those horse pictures you drew are really great, I can't draw horses for toffee, or fudge :D

2006-02-01 [Ham]: They're the only thing I can actually draw for some reason, probably due to lack of visable 'fur' and highly defined muscles, which means you can draw them all in and look intelligent. Weirdly, those are the only ones I've ever drawn, I've got far more wolves

2006-02-01 [Acceber]: Well, you should draw more horses, or maybe unicorns? They would look amazing! *nods* For having great horse pics, I offer you a cookie =D

2006-02-01 [Ham]: Yay! I love cookies, seriously, whcih is slightly depressing as there is a definate lack of cookies where I live. I tend to avoid unicorns as I recieve large pokes for drawing them from my brother, he thinks drawing horses is bad enough ^.^

2006-02-01 [Acceber]: :) Brothers can be annoying, I have two :P But they don't care what I draw. I love cookies too! They are very...yum! :D

2006-02-01 [Ham]: I have four (and noteably less cookies, unfortunately) I have decided biscuits offend me, they're just not cookies...

2006-02-01 [Acceber]: Yeah, biscuits are just cookies lame sidekicks! :D

2006-02-03 [Ham]: Of course! I never thought of it that way before, the're all crunchy and flavourless... and rubbish at saving the world. Unlike the humble cookie.

2006-02-03 [Acceber]: Indeed, people should worship them! :D

2006-02-05 [Ham]: They should, and cook them at ev ery street corner, so we are never without their magical influence...

2006-02-07 [Kiddalee]: ***does not like tea biscuits*

2006-02-07 [Ham]: You have to be greatly skilled to consume them correctly, a second too long and you'll have to get the nearest person to you to run and get a spoon to fish it out the tea.... hardly a relaxing experience.

2006-05-25 [Linderel]: Assuming that you think my bio is an exemplary one, you can add me here.

2006-05-27 [Kiddalee]: ***finally looks* YaY!

2006-07-13 [Chrysilla]: Can u take a look on my house? ^^ I don`t wanna seem too proud but I like what I have. Anyway there`s place for improvement :P

2006-07-15 [Kiddalee]: Yeah, your house is mostly well built. I just have to think of some way to describe it here. Oh, there is one problem. I don't think you're supposed to have 2 banners for the same wiki in your house. It's in the Uploading Art Rules, S-7.

2006-07-27 [kittykittykitty]: Unless she changed it since you saw it I don't see two banners for the same wiki :/ I do see a rogue <center> tag, though

2006-07-28 [Kiddalee]: *looks* Yep, she did change it. I wish she could have told me.

2006-07-28 [Chrysilla]: Sorry ^^ i forgot that. *Coughs ans gets an official voice* [Kiddalee], now I don't have tho banners for the same wiki anymore. ^^

2006-07-28 [Kiddalee]: :D Okay. Now I will have to stop being lazy and slow, and come up with a description for your house design.

2006-07-29 [Chrysilla]: Ohhh thank you, I like the "European flavour", sounds tasty. *hands out a piece of french brioche with chocolat for [Kiddalee]

2006-07-31 [Kiddalee]: ***looks up brioche*

2006-08-02 [Chrysilla]: something good to eat, specific for french :D Ok ok *hands out a cookie*

2006-08-19 [shadowfire09]: would my house work for one of the great houses?...i've worked pretty hard on it...i think it's turned out great...but...yeah lol

2006-08-19 [Chrysilla]: I suggest u to put < center > and < / center > before and after the dividers. It would look nicer.

2006-08-20 [Kiddalee]: By that, I belive she means <center> and </center>.

2006-08-22 [shadowfire09]: i keep trying to...but then it says that i have to many lines or something...which is weird..cuz..i have no where near too much lines

2006-08-23 [Kiddalee]: ***confuses* Do you type the tags on the same line as the pictures? And, have you asked in the Help forum or anywhere?

2006-08-24 [shadowfire09]: yes i do type them in there. and i've asked hedda... but either he won't reply..or my message didn't go through...but oh well

2006-08-25 [Kiddalee]: He doesn't like you asking in his private message box, because he likely gets tons of messages and only wants to answer questions nobody else knows the answer to. Well, did you try typing the opening tag just above the image and the closing tag just below? Or other wierd arrangements like that? I don't know if that could help, but sometimes wierd stuff does. Anyways, I'll list your bio.

2006-08-26 [Chrysilla]: uhm... i think i wrote that well... so i don`t see your point, kiddalee... or i didn`t drink enough coffee yet?

2006-08-28 [Kiddalee]: Your tags aren't visible to me. Did you put ! uQt ! (sans spaces) in them?

2006-08-29 [Chrysilla]: oops u`re right :P sorry - so i didn`t have enough coffee lol

2006-08-29 [shadowfire09]: I like coffeee....COOOFFFEEEE!!!!!...lol

2006-09-02 [Chrysilla]: *hands out a cup of heart-stopping coffee* (i make it very strong to feel its effect ^^)

2006-09-03 [shadowfire09]: *dies*

2006-09-03 [Chrysilla]: lol, i was just kiddin`, c`mon ur heart cannot be so weak!! Stay with us *throws a cup of cold water on [shadowfire09]*

2006-09-03 [shadowfire09]: nope...i just randomly die in conversations...it tends to get interesting remarks...

2006-09-03 [shadowfire09]: I GOT THE THINGIES TO BE CENTERED FINALLY!!!

2006-09-03 [Chrysilla]: lol... congrats for those thingies :P

2006-09-03 [shadowfire09]: lol all it took was going on to the slowest computer on the house and waiting a half hour for my page to load...lol

2006-09-04 [Chrysilla]: but you did it after all so welcome on the list of people with great bios *hands out chocolate* if u want a cup of coffee instead just say :P

2006-09-04 [shadowfire09]: nah i think i'll skip  on the dieing today lol

2006-09-04 [Chrysilla]: lol okay i`ll have the coffee then... to wake up ^^

2006-09-04 [shadowfire09]: lol

2006-09-24 [Chrysilla]: *singing* guess who`s back, back again... It`s so good to be back! ^^ Coffee anyone? *evil smile*

2006-09-25 [shadowfire09]: no...i don't wanna die i don't wanna die....*thinks a bit*...well...actually...that might be an interesting experience...i'll take some of the suicidal coffee...as long nas you promise to revive me...K?

2006-09-29 [Kiddalee]: *drinks tea*

2006-09-29 [shadowfire09]: i love how no one promises...

2006-10-14 [Kiddalee]: I didn't ask you to drink the suicidal coffee and I can't revive you. I suppose I could promise you, though...

2006-10-16 [shadowfire09]: eh, well...don't bother. the coffee cup had a leak and now it's all over my pants *looks disgusted with self*....i realized taht a while ago. but...i wanted to see just how much coffee my pants would hold and now...AH AH AH IT BURNS!!! HOT HOT HOT !!! LIQUIDO CALIENTE!!!!

2006-10-28 [Chrysilla]: okay okay i`ll revive you *prepares the wand and the spellbook... and a new cup of coffee* here u go

2006-10-29 [shadowfire09]: erm..could you conjure up a new pair of pants for me...i look like i pissed all over myself...

2006-10-29 [Chrysilla]: *roflmsao* no, sorry, i can`t do that... only serious spells like reviving ppl

2006-10-29 [shadowfire09]: damn well then...*takes your pants*...mwahahaha...god damn it..they don't quite fit...you're way too tall!!!

2006-10-31 [Chrysilla]: lol i`m only 1 m 65... can`t be THAT tall though

2006-11-02 [shadowfire09]: ha i'm in the us...so we use feet...not meters...i'm 5 feet and 4 inches...

2006-11-17 [Kiddalee]: Canada is still in the transition stage. We use mL, and then pounds. We still use inches when measuring our own heights, though we use cm in math class. When cooking, we tend to measure in cups and teaspoons rather than mL.

2006-11-17 [shadowfire09]: we measure in cups and teaspoons...

ack twould be quite confusing for me...


i suck at conversions

2006-11-19 [Chrysilla]: lol.... well someone tried to converse my height (not sure if he did it right) but he said i`m about 5'5...
and when i cook i don`t measure. Just keep adding this and that till i get a good taste ^^

2006-11-19 [shadowfire09]: same here...

2006-11-26 [Chrysilla]: and i`m the mistress of omlets - anyone wants some? :>

2006-11-26 [shadowfire09]: i do!!!....

as long as there's no coffee...

2006-12-02 [Chrysilla]: loool.... i don`t put coffe in my omlets... omg u made me laugh so hard!! We`ll just have a cup of coffee after eating... or chocolate for u if u want ^_^

2006-12-02 [shadowfire09]: i'm glad i made you laugh!!!...i know you don't put coffee in omlets...but i had to make sure...

      after all...you DID kill me with it once..

2006-12-02 [Chrysilla]: True true but hey... I also ressurected you...

2006-12-03 [shadowfire09]: true true

2007-01-01 [Kiddalee]: Would anybody like to become the new administration for this page?

2007-01-02 [Chrysilla]: what exactly is the job description?

2007-01-02 [Kiddalee]: *composes*

2007-03-08 [Jitter]: Another great attempt to refix ET^^ Kudos.

2007-03-15 [shadowfire09]: i'll do it...

2007-09-14 [Chrysilla]: anyone still alive here?

2007-09-14 [Linderel]: Aye.

2007-09-14 [Chrysilla]: There was that question about admin wannabes, and I intendend to say yes, but then I saw no one was talking annymore :(

2007-09-14 [Linderel]: Well, Kidda seems to have been away from ET for a while. I'd imagine the job description is to find people with great bios and describe them like above - after asking, of course.

2007-09-14 [Chrysilla]: Yeah, that's what I thought too. Well I would gladly do this job <img:44166_1164144932.gif>

2007-09-15 [Linderel]: I don't even remember which version of my house Kidda described here. xD

2007-09-15 [Chrysilla]: Once I'm done redesigning the page, I will update it, then start adding new people :)

2007-09-15 [Chrysilla]: I will let yours the way it is :) That if you don't mind

2007-09-15 [Linderel]: As long as you think it still fits, I don't mind at all. :3

2007-09-15 [Chrysilla]: Oh yeah, and one more thing, people: if you know someone who deserves being featured, nominate him/her! people with great bios - nominations

2007-09-16 [Linderel]: Ahem. I'd like to point out that [NOOOPE] is part of the crew now... :P

2007-09-16 [NOOOPE]: Yeah, was juuuust about to say that.

2007-09-16 [Chrysilla]: Okay, my bad (the "M for the crew" wiki is still in your house ;) )

2007-09-16 [NOOOPE]: Myes.... myes it is...

2007-09-17 [Saray]: Bwahaha, hilarious :P
But yes, I do like dominating *dr. evil finger action*

2007-09-17 [Linderel]: *aesthetics !
Well, it's possible to spell it 'esthetics' but I think 'aesthetics' is prettier.

2007-09-17 [Chrysilla]: it is prettier, but the dictionnary said it is "esthetics". Checked before writing because I thought it was with "a" like you :)

2007-09-17 [Linderel]: I don't think, I know. ;)
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/esthetics

Edit: According to my Oxford English Minidictionary, 'esthetics' is a spelling used in the US.

2007-09-17 [Chrysilla]: It's weird that mine proposes a wrong spelling but oh well. Oxford is Oxford. Thanks for letting me know :)

2007-09-17 [Linderel]: It's possible that your dictionary uses American spelling. Or maybe even mixed spelling. *shrug* You're welcome. ;3 I'm a huge nitpicker, and believe that once you start with a certain way of spelling, you should stick to it.

2007-09-17 [Chrysilla]: I'm trying to use the British spelling, but as I'm neither British, or American, I cannot be sure of anything. English isn't even my second language. So I need all the help I can get :)

2007-09-17 [Linderel]: Hey, English is my third language too! xD
I just seem to have a knack for it. Truth be told, I still occasionally need to change my spelling when I find differences. I think I have most of them down by now, but... it's an eternal learning process. :3

2007-09-17 [Chrysilla]: Oh, then I must congratulate you for the excellent English :)
I'm improving my spelling by reading in English, but untill a short time ago I didn't even know there were differences between British and American spelling. As you say, it's a neverending learning process.

2007-09-17 [Linderel]: Thank you. :3
Ah, reading is a good way to improve. Good luck with it. :)
A couple of examples, British vs. American: 'colour' vs. 'color', 'defence' vs. 'defense'.
And then there are cases such as this: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/advice

2007-09-17 [Chrysilla]: Yeah I knew the "ou" vs "o" cases, thanks :)

2007-10-02 [Chrysilla]: *sigh* It's too hard to find people with great bios nowadays... I see alot of crap while searching for those special ones... I would really appreciate a hand.

2007-10-03 [Hedda]: Shouldn't this page be exported?

2007-10-03 [Chrysilla]: Oh, I didn't even notice it's not. But on the other hand, I don't see the "export" button anywhere... hmmmm...

2007-10-03 [Linderel]: That's probably because you're not the owner. I'll fix both issues.

2007-10-04 [Chrysilla]: thanks

2007-10-04 [Wunjo*]: Whee. :] I'm actually on here.
Didn't see it coming, since someone said; Woah, you're house is so typical emo. XD

2007-10-04 [Adaman]: Excellent. I see many good bios here (Dela & Sunny, hurrah!) Good choices all around I say.

2007-10-05 [Chrysilla]: Actually I found your house looking through Dela's relationships <img:stuff/dand-gif.gif>

2007-10-08 [Synsae]: ok, granted I been put on here few days ok... don't think I have said "thank you" so... thank you <img:44166_1164145171.gif> and now I am off to see the other people's great bios here

2007-10-24 [Jitter]: I'd be glad to be on this list, if I can nominate myself ^^; I also have previous bios on wikis so you can browse through them ^_^
This wiki is a great idea by the way :D

2007-10-24 [Chrysilla]: On the list :) You have a beautiful house :)
I'll think of a description as soon as I get less sleepy...

2007-10-24 [Jitter]: Thank you ^_^ *hugs*

2007-10-24 [Chrysilla]: *hugs back*

2007-11-19 [Mental Terrorist]: Wow! Its nice to know that someone is actually reading bios. LOL
Keep up the good work!

2007-11-19 [shadowfire09]: [DarkAngel3] has a good house. it;s easy on the eyes...not forwards...and it entertaining...

2007-11-19 [Chrysilla]: Should have added her to the nomination wiki :) I'll take a look at it later, even if I'm a bit against using dead links to have colours in the house. Anyway you can add her and a description of her house here yourself :) I'm not even the owner of the page, everyone can edit it.

[Mental Terrorist], trust me, it's a tough work. Sometimes I spend hours browsing through houses and I don't find any, but any house deserving to be nominated...

2007-11-19 [Linderel]: Actually, [Chrysilla], you are the owner of this wiki - I changed the ownership when I exported the page. :P

2007-11-19 [Chrysilla]: Oh ^^ I didn't even notice <img:44166_1164145197.gif> Well thank you!

2008-02-02 [Angel In Red]: Denisa, this place is amazing. Love the houses that are listed, especially the house of [Trennas] it is just...wow.

These houses are awesome. Oh look even Dela is here! Wait, why am I suprised. Of course she is here. Her house is the sex.

[Synsae] has some really nice photos. ^_^

2008-02-02 [Chrysilla]: Feel generous? I could use a hand of help XD

2008-02-09 [Angel In Red]: Hell Yarr, anything for Dennie. So what help do you need? ^_^

2008-02-09 [Chrysilla]: Err, descriptions for the houses of the people that were nominated for example.
But no groping! This is serious, mkay?

2008-02-11 [Angel In Red]: ...No groping? *Dismayed*

2008-02-11 [Trennas]: darn:(

2008-02-11 [Angel In Red]: *Looks at Trennas* Not sure if that would be worth it then! XD

2008-02-11 [Trennas]: me neither ^^

2008-02-11 [Angel In Red]: *Gropes* See? Much fun. ^_^

2008-07-15 [HardRockAngel]: Great initiative ^^
