Oh... and the little bitty of bad elvish on the front page of my site is wrong, isn't it? *hehe* What would be the correct way to say it?

Yep, it needs work. I'd translate it this way:
"Suil am mellon i tôl anin ardh-i-nGaladhrim!"
Literally: Greetings to a friend who comes to the realm of the Galadhrim!
By the way, the N in "ardh-i-nGaladhrim" is right where it should be. It's called "nasal lenition."

I think our webmissy is pleased to see you here. I knew you know Sindarin very well because on Telpeath's site, I asked for my name in Sindarin. Anyway, you enjoy posting around |

I'm quite enjoying your politics and religion discussion forum, but most of the time, I shall be found hovering over the language forum.

"Fifi" is fine.
Well, I tend to be spacey and stuck inside my head most of the time, and a nice way to put that is "dreamy". My first name is Fiona, and my friends gave me the nickname "Fi-Fi", so I stuck the two together. Pretty simple.
Another name that some of you may have run across is "Navaer Lalaith". It's my critiquing/reviewing sock puppet, and it means "Farewell Laughter". Mwahahahaha!
The last one is pretty simple: "I_Lam_Edhellen". It means "The_Elven_Tongue". I give you three guesses to figure out the inspiration for that one.
