Remember, registering your blog is just half the process to join the ring. The other half is putting the ring code on your blog. The alt-webring ring code *must* be present before your blog will be activated. At a minimum, I ask that a link to this blog as well as the "next" and "previous" links be included. You may, of course, also just paste the entire unedited block of code into your blog.
If you're having trouble with the ring code, send an e-mail to msmorenna (at) gmail (dot) com and I'll do what I can to help straighten things out.
For those of you affected by Hurricane Ike, we'll be thinking of you....

Final Stages of Moving the Blog Ring
First, I hope you all are having a manageable back-to-school season. Remember, in a couple of weeks the routine will return and, with any luck, the your fiber fun time will return!!
Second, there are no new blogs to announce this week. Feel free to share the info about the blog ring with your fiber friends. Right now we have 141 active sites. I'd love to see that get to 300.
Final Moving Really Underway
I have started to delete sites from RingSurf. I'm sending a final moving information mail to all the members, then deleting their listings after the messages are sent. This process is greatly simplified by cutting and pasting e-mail addresses and using a message template, but it still takes some time. I've been delaying the actual deleting, to give people more time to move to alt-webring.com, but it's been several months and e-mails now.
Just a reminder:
If you change your blog template or move your blog and wish to remain a part of the blog ring, you will need to paste your ring code into your new blog. Otherwise, your blog gets flagged as "broken" when I check the ring.
If you didn't save a copy of the ring code, you can get another copy by logging into alt-webring.com and clicking the "get code" button. Then paste that blog of HTML wherever you'd like it in your blog. If you have questions, feel free to shoot me an e-mail at msmorenna (at) gmail (dot) com and I'll help as best I can.

New Additions Week ending 8/9/2008
We're up to 138 active members of the ring. This week Dog Face Girls joined the ring. (I've decided to start listing the joining blogs from this point forward.)
I'm still sending out e-mail to the ring-surf members encouraging them to switch over. Once I get all the e-mails sent, I'll wait three weeks then kill the old ring. Theoretically everybody has received at least two e-mails by now when I sent bulk mail, but I wanted to give it one more try with an individual message. I would rather not cut off people who still want to be part of the ring.
Best of luck with all your fibery activities!

Moving Progress
We're still moving from Ring Surf to alt-webrings.com. The process slowed down a bunch when life got busy and I'm still sending out e-mail to Ring Surf members. The Ring Surf ring is still running. It may be the end of July before things get taken down there. Apparently many ring members did not get the e-mail about moving to alt-webrings, but did get the e-mail about changing things at Ring Surf. I apologize in advance for the confusion of switching things twice.
To get signed up at alt-webrings, you will need to fill out the join form. For the majority of people, the "Site Entry URL" is your blog URL. Create a Site ID for your site and a password. Remember this information as you will need it to edit your entry later. You will also need to enter your name and e-mail address as the webmaster and webmaster e-mail. The rest of the blanks should be self-explanatory. After filling out the form, click submit. On the next page, click the "Get Code" button on the left side. This generates your ring code. Copy that chunk of code into your site and remove the old RingSurf code. Do not forget to put the new alt-webring code on your site. Several blogs have registered at alt-webring, but still display the old RingSurf code. This means your blog will NOT show up in the blog ring and you'll be deactivated when I check the ring.
