I seriously love how shocked y'all are... Three cheers for Elanor and narnianerd for organizing this! Aren't you mods glad we're good? What with the super ninja skills of Ela and Joe, we could get into ALL kinds of trouble.

Lady Courage, I appreciate the sentiment "NARNIA WEB IS NOTHING WITHOUT Y'ALL!" but honestly, if it weren't for you members, we'd be bored stiff and out of a job. Seriously, and for those of you who missed this, you folk are amazing! Thank you for your gracious words, Lady!

Ah well, you know how it is; good leadership translates to good citizens. So thank you!! But I'm still right.

Elsie, I love the graphics, but then you knew I would, didn't you? Thank you for your totally amazing and epic post!! Despite declaring that you didn't know how to say it, I think you said it beautifully! I was grinning like a fool!

You were!?! AWESOME! I love making you do that. But you didn't get a pic this time either, I assume? And yes, I did know you'd love the graphics. *snicker*

I think y'all should post your graphics for each moderator in this thread - just in case there are some mods that weren't able to get on, and for posterity's sake. I love all of the sigs/avies, by the way - especially Philip and Growlie.

Oooh, great idea Miff!!

Again, I'm so pleasantly smug you mods were surprised (and delighted)! This is better than a practical joke...

Wow, guys, seriously, THANKS. Between reading this thread, and reading the several PMs that trickled in and that I was able to read during my breaks at work, it' sbeen such a lovely surprise!

Again, thank you Mods for all you've done. To show my appreciation, I made you all some graphics.

First off, here's the set I made in honor of Johobbit.

And some wallies for all the mods I've gotten to know over the (Almost) year I've been here. (Note: Princess Anna, I wanted to make yours extra-special, but none of the pictures or colors were working out right. So I'm sorry if the wallie I made for you looks a little plain. But the poem in it, I wrote myself, from the heart. )

I wanted to make one for all of you, but unfortunately, I didn't know what all of you would like, what your interests were, etc. So I hope it will suffice for me to just honestly tell you: I love and appreciate you all!!!!!!

Wow! What a great surprise! Graphics, poems, a video, treats galore...y'all are wonderful! You're such a big part of what makes this community special. Thanks!

Excellent idea Mountie. Here's the set I made for Digs.

And just incase my last post wasn't clear...

HAPPY MOD DAY!!!!!!!

(Insert fireworks celebration here*)

Aww, you guys are da bomb. I was so surprised to log in today and see such a lovely thread, and to have so many sweet PMs in my inbox. I really don't feel like I deserve your thanks and appreciation because A.) Mods aren't really all that different from regular members, and B.) I've been on bit of a break these last few months.

But thank you, anyway. I do appreciate it so much!

Thanks for the thanks!

I must say, even though I sit on the border of mod and member and can't visit frequently, I still am glad to be part of this site. I still remember my pre-mod days (ancient history! ), and how friendly the mods were, making me feel they weren't like the unapproachable authority figures I found mods on other forums to be. That was what made me glad to join the team. Even now, I am grateful to both my fellow mods and the members that make this site great.

I might not be around a lot, but I don't plan on leaving anytime soon!

Big Thanks! For all the nice comments and the time and effort to let us know how much we are appreciated.

I too received some nice PM messages today. Glad we have so many appreciative members. And today it was really great to be on the Mod Squad for NarniaWeb.

Blessings to you all!

Here's the graphics I had for Destined (great idea, Mountie!):

Happy Mod Day, everyone!!! (And thank you to Elanor and Joe, for their hard work organizing all of this and general ninja skills. )

Oh golly. Here I am getting into things late, as usual.

Moderators, you are all wonderful. I have so many happy memories involving NarniaWeb, and quite a few of them involve a friendly mod or two.

I would like to specifically thank our Costumes Moderator, Meltintalle, and also Lady Eowyn, who was a Costumes Mod until recently. These two ladies seem always ready with comments on costume designs, thoughts on the latest costume news, and great suggestions for sewing newbs like me. Meltintalle in particular has been very encouraging to everyone working on costume recreation projects.
Thank you both for you wonderful contributions to NarniaWeb, my "Home page away from home page"

Thanks to all of the members of NWeb! You guys and gals are what make being a Mod so wonderful.

Cookies and chocolates and art, oh my!

So thankful for this site — and all of you who make it what it is! Thank you!

You've all been so, so sweet and wonderful! You made my day yesterday, and I loved all of the PMs that I got this morning. Thanks for everything and for being wonderful members!

I'd like to give one more thanks for our wonderful mods; because we needn't keep all our appreciation for just one day a year. YOU ARE LOVED!
And thanks to all who helped with graphics, and a huge thanks to Joe for letting me be Miss Bossy.

There's my graphics!

Sorry I didn't post here yesterday! I want to thank all the mods though now for their extreme wonderfulness! Without y'all, Narniaweb would be like all those other forums out there. But it's not. It's the best forum I've ever been in or on, and you guys are awesome to keep it running the way you do! Thanks so much!!
