Any sort of Middle Earth legendarium artwork is ok. It doesn't need to be made by or about hobbits.
Please give attribution to the original artist when possible.
It is not required, but if you know, please talk a bit about the scene in the image. What's going on? Who is in it? Why is it happening? Do you like it? Why?
Don't forget about the other hobbit forums here: !hobbits@hobbit.world !hobbit_games@hobbit.world

It's a matter of taste, so no one is wrong here.
That's a hard one. I don't have a strong opinion about each take. Legolas is not one of the best characters on Bakshi's film, and I don't remember enough about the book to say which one is more faithfull (if that's something you appreciate).
Just to be clear: I think Jackson's films are incomparably better product than Bakshi's, they are not on the same league. 1978 version is not even finished! The only way you could compare them is by factoring their bugdets. But I don't know how to "divide my opinions by a number", hehe.
I like having both so people can choose, or watch both.
