  720.      One approach to tracking and viewing Fidonet related websites is to
  721.      visit webrings that specialize in Fidonet.
  722.  
  723.      A webring is a method where sites having a common theme advertise
  724.      other websites with simailar themes.  The advantage to the webring
  725.      concept is that in theory, the sites have an interest in maintaining
  726.      an accuate listing and can modify their own listings on a site by
  727.      site basis.
  728.  
  729.      It appears that there are two fidonet webrings....the long-running
  730.      system at http://b.webring.com/hub?ring=fidonet and another at
  731.      http://www.fidonet.us/fidoring/
  732.  
  733.      The ring at webring.com is larger, but forces the viewer to look at
  734.      google ads panels. The smaller ring at fidonet.us does not depend on
  735.      adverstising revenue from ads.
  736.  
  737.      Sysops with Fidonet related websites should consider joining one or
  738.      both rings.

  1242.      =================================================================
  1243.  
  1244.                             How to Submit an Article
  1245.  
  1246.      If you wish to submit an article for inclusion in the Fidonews, here
  1247.      are some guidelines, if you send it as an attached file; the preferred
  1248.      method if you want reasonable control over how the published article
  1249.      will appear in the Fidonews:
  1250.  
  1251.      a) Plain ASCII text. If you could type it on your keyboard, it's
  1252.         probably quite OK. No line may be longer than 70 characters.
  1253.  
  1254.      b) Put a title to the article. Put the title in two times. The first
  1255.         time, on the first line, with an * before it. The second time, on
  1256.         the second line, without the * and centered. This will help in the
  1257.         format since the title with the * is removed and used in the index,
  1258.         the second line will become the headline. On the third line, put
  1259.         your name and FidoNet address, present or former. If former, you
  1260.         may want to add some other address where you can be reached for
  1261.         personal comments.
  1262.  
  1263.      c) Deadline for article submission is Sunday, 22:00 UTC.
  1264.  
  1265.      Help the Editor by following the above guides. Below are some subjects
  1266.      and the file extension for the article as set in the configuration
  1267.      file for the making of the Fidonews. Please help by putting the file
  1268.      extension of the correct subject on the file name if known.
  1269.

  1287.      If you don't know or are not sure, send the article anyway. Put a .TXT
  1288.      on it and I'll try to figure out where it should be in the Fidonews.
  1289.  
  1290.      If you follow these simple guidelines, there should be little problem
  1291.      in getting your article published. If your submission is too far out
  1292.      of specs for the Fidonews, it will be returned to you and/or a message
  1293.      sent informing you of the problem. This DOES NOT mean that your
  1294.      article is not accepted. It means that there is something in it that I
  1295.      can not fix and I need your help on it.

  1304.  
  1305.      IMPORTANT! If you send the article via e-mail, make sure you put the
  1306.                 word "fidonews" somewhere in the subject line! That way it
  1307.                 will always pass the spam filter, ending up in the proper
  1308.                 folder.
  1309.  
  1310.      Please include a message, telling me that you have sent an article.
  1311.      That way I will know to look for it.
