Happy Sixth Anniversary, NarniaWeb!

Postby wisewoman » Nov 21, 2009 9:05 am

On this day six years ago, a little Narnia movie fansite went live. Tirian had wanted to create something similar to TheOneRing.net for the upcoming Narnia films, and christened the new site "NarniaWeb."

From the About NarniaWeb page:

NarniaWeb was founded in November 2003 by Tirian (yes, the name’s a pseudonym). It started out as a handful of news stories and a forum, but grew quickly. In March 2004 when the first USA Today ad came out, our traffic jumped to 1,000 visitors a day — and it’s been going up ever since. We had a major redesign in September 2004 and in April 2005 we added the Costume Site as our first affiliate site. In July 2005 we were nominated for ‘Best Movie Fan Site’ at Movies.com (along with the likes of Mugglenet and TheForce.net). In July 2007 and early 2008 the site got some updates, as well as a forum upgrade. In September 2009, NarniaWeb was completely redesigned, from the front page to the forum.


I don't know about you, but I'm everlastingly thankful that NarniaWeb exists. It has enriched my life in so many ways. It was my first forum... after a few days of lurking, I decided I had something to say, and I've never stopped saying it since ;)). I've made so many friends here, and many of these friendships will be lifelong (and eternity-long!). I've been challenged to mature in various ways, from learning to express myself articulately and debate to learning from the godly examples and encouragement of my fellow forum members. I've been here four and a half years and my only regret is that I wasn't here for all six. What a site!

So here is to six years of breaking Narnia news, fantastic forum discussions, great friendships formed here, and just general wonderfulness :D. Long live NarniaWeb!

Happy Anniversary. (I've been here since a few month after LWW hit theaters, though I only joined the forum last year, and became a regular this year. :) )

I first showed up at NarniaWeb a month or two before the release of the first film looking for movie trailers, especially the Super Trailer. Suffice it to say I've been here ever since and have made many new friends as a result. Happy Anniversary NWeb!!!

Hurrah for NarniaWeb! I seriously do not know what I would be like without it...very different, I think. It's hard to believe I've been here since I was fourteen, and that it's been around for even longer! Happy Birthday! :D

Here here and 3 cheers for Tirian! :ymapplause: I can't believe it's 6 years already and I've been a member for less than 2 years and a moderator for just 7 months. But it has been great to be here and discuss a variety of things with a variety of people. :)

I trust all the movies will be made and NarniaWeb will continue for years to come. Go NarniaWeb and may more people join and add to the great experience here! :-bd
