Hi, there! :D I'm new here, so I suppose I should introduce myself. :wink:

I've been a NIMH fan for as long as I can remember. May seem silly for someone who's nearly in her twenties to be attracted to a bunch of cartoon caracters, but hey, I see all these other posts and I don't feel so silly anymore.

I had no idea there were so many fellow NIMH fans out there! :shock: I guess I came here because my nickname is 'mousie'. I'm kind of shy and quiet.
Though my primary interest is in SW, I still like NIMH for the story and definately the music. I've been trying to play the main theme on my flute but can't get it 'cause my flute only has one octave. :cry: Anyone know where I can get some sheet music for 'Flying Dreams'?

Sorry for the long intro. liSniff, nibble, chitterli :wink:

Hi ya MouseWhiskers :D

Don`t worry animation is for all ages, remember that Don & Walt also adults while making great animation movies (if they did not love it, then why bother)

Like your name so close to mine, on my site I`m Desert Mouse.

High Desert, Well I live in the Mojave desert of CA. , Boron, mojave, Lancaster CA. But I live in place called N. edwards.. Ring a Bell ? :)

I hope you enjoy us here, a great place to talk animation, books and stories :D

Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! liHUGSli =)
Welcome to our burrow MouseWhiskers! (hehe, seems like you have a rival Whiskas :wink: )
I second the motion! Yeah, as "the other" whiskers said, animation is for all ages and as you can see, you're definitively not alone. Here you'll find many people who enjoy the movie as much as you, and don't have any regret of that.
So, I hope you find fun and new friends here. Ah! Check out the NIMHmuck! It's quite fun. :) http://www.thornvalley.com/commons/forum/viewtopic.php?t=215

Thank you, Whiskers57 and Tenken! :D I didn't expect such a warm welcome so soon!

NIMHmuck???? :? What's that? Sounds like what farmer Fitzgibbons (sp?) cleaned out of Dragon's catbox! :P
Sorry; I must warn you, I make up some awful jokes.

I'd check out the NIMHmuck tonight, but it's already past my bedtime. :wink:

Happy birthday, Whiskers57! :D

And goodnight to Thorn Valley!

Welcome here in Thorn Valley MouseWhiskers,
There is no need to feel silly. After all we are fascinated about some animated characters that have more depth than a lot of other characters in a movie with real actors. My viewpoint on the characters may have changed, but not the fact that I´m a big fan of "The Secret of NIMH". And my age is now 37.

That reminds me:
Happy Birthday Whiskers57!

Hi,

My name's EagleBlaze.

I love to read books, what can I say?

First off, I loved watching the movie The Secret of NIMH and after I saw the movie, read the book and it's sequels. I own the SoN on DVD and watched it over a dozen of times. This is one of the rare times, I think that the movie was actually better than the book (if you take my point).

Besides the movie SoN, I love to read/watch: All Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Treasure Planet, Titian A.E., Anastasia, Mulan, Tarazan, Mercedes Lackey books, Tad Williams, and Terry Goodkind/Brooks books.

As for my thought's on the Secret of NIMH II, personally, I thinked that it royally sucked. I just didn't think that the plot outline wasn't great. I only watched it once and that was it.

I'm a Justin/Mrs. Brisby fan, though I do read other SoN novels that don't have that paring since there's not a lot of fanfics to chose from. I have two questions.

1. This may sound stupid, but how do you post pictures up (next to your screenname)? When you post replies on forums like this one. I've been wondering about that for a while now. :?:

2. Also, I've found that another website that has a plot (kind-of, it says that it's a plot of a video game kind of) and I kind of want to use half of the plot in a fanfic that I could try and write. Should I try and get premission from the owner of the website itself to use the plot? Here's the link:

Thanks!

From,

EagleBlaze

In your first question, sign in, go to your profile, scroll down to "Avatar Control Panel" click on "Show Gallery" lots of NIMH pics should come up, find the one you like and click on the white dot and submit, if all goes well, then head to the nearest bar and brag 8) .

You should probably get permission from him, since the storyline is one he made up. I believe he has his email address on his site.
