If you do not have a WebRing navbar on your submitted page and would like to join this webring then please follow these ten instructions EXACTLY.

Shortcut: The easiest way to print a page is to press CTRL-P.
Please read ALL ten instructions before you get started, so you won't miss anything vital.
1. Click the "Join Now" link at the top right of the homepage to go to the ring's add form.
2. Complete the form.
3. You will receive an email with your site ID and other ring information.
4. If this is only one of several WebRings you have on the specified page, ie. if you already have the correct SSNB code on your site, then sigh with relief and skip to Step 10. If you do not already have a navbar on your submitted page go on to Step 5.
5. Go to your Edit Site Information page. The URL is in your submission email.
6. Click the link to 'Navigation Wizard'.
7. Copy the navbar code in the text box onto your submitted page.
Highlight the code in the text box.
Shortcut: The easiest way to highlight it in Windows is to place your cursor somewhere inside the box and press CTRL-A.
Copy the text in the box.
Shortcut: The easiest way to copy the text in Windows is to type CTRL-C.
Paste the text onto the submitted page. ie. Open your page editor and move your cursor to the place where you want to put your ring code and paste the code onto your page.

8. Save your page.
9. Upload it to your website.
10. E-mail the Ringmaster to give him the RING ID, your SITE ID, and the URL on which you have placed the ring code.
Soon you will receive an email from the ringmaster that will tell you whether your site is approved or denied. Sites are denied admission because - the code is NOT on the specified page, because the applicant does NOT have a valid email address, because the applicant's page is inappropriate for the ring's theme, or because the site violates one of the ring rules.
NB: If you move your ring code from the submitted page to another page without changing the information on your Edit Site Information page, your site will be suspended from the ring. If you change the content or character of your page so that one of the conditions stated above exist, your site will be suspended from the ring. If your site is suspended, you will be notified, and you will have three days to fix the problem.
This may sound a little strict... but riddle me this...
"When is a ring, not a ring?" Answer: "When it's broken!" We hope you will agree that these rules are a good idea in order to keep our webrings working, content rich and satisfying for visitors, but most of all making them an effective way of ensuring we can bring lots of visitors to your website.
