Tis a simple thing to join the ring!

1. Your site should be an eCard site made with the program gCards written by Greg
2. Save this graphic below on YOUR gCards eCard site, do not hotlink to this graphic.
gCards webring logo
3. If you wish, you may change the color of the graphic to suit your own site or even change the graphic itself. Just be sure the coding itself is correct so the ring is not broken.
4. Go to RingSurf, fill out the required form, and get your ring ID. The coding may not be right on RingSurf, but be sure to make note of your SiteID.
5. Place the gCards RingSurf webring code on your site. You may place it anywhere but the best place is right below the categories list that shows up on the left side of your screen. The coding is toward the bottom of this page.
6. Email BubblyBabs at:
webring at fractalfairy dot com
with your website information and webring code so she can verify you have done everything correctly. If all is well you will be added to the ring. If not you will be assisted with getting everything done right.
7. Since this is a gCard ring there are no restrictions on what your site is about or looks like AS LONG AS it is not against the law, this includes child porn, etc.

Below is the coding you will need to use in order to place the webring below your categories list. You do not have to do this but it would be nice if everyone were consistant so people could find the ring link without having to hunt for it.

1. Open your inc/lang/ language file.
2. Find this line:
// categories
3. At the bottom of the //categories section add this line:
$cat04 = ' [webring code goes here] ';
4. The brackets and everything in between will deleted and the webring code will be placed in this little area. Be sure to put your ring ID into the ring code. Be mindful of where you saved the webring graphic, I put mine in the images folder. I did try to add the whole coding including the above to the RingSurf site but it doesn't seem to want to take it. *frown* It IS possible that RingSurf won't give you the correct coding so be sure to check the text file (link given in #11 below) so you have everything correct. Also, you may view an image of it *HERE*. Remember, you need to change the graphic information so it reflects where it is on YOUR website.
5. Save your file and upload.
6. Open the inc/getcategories.php file.
7. At the very bottom of this file you will add this line:
(?=$cat04;?)
substituting the angled brackets known as the less than sign and the greater than sign for the parenthesis shown above (due to the limits of HTML). It should look like the image below:

8. Save the file and upload.
9. Check to make sure the graphic appears correctly. If not then double check where you saved the graphic on your site. Remember, do not link to the graphic on this site.
10. Email BubblyBabs at webring at fractalfairy dot com when you are done so you may be added to the ring!
11. A text file version of the inc/lang/language_en.php file can be viewed *HERE* so you will have an idea of how the coding should look (just in case RingSurf gets it wrong!). *smile* Once the coding is done it should look similar to this:
