On behalf of IO/FA Ari:

I have written up a list of Internet Guidelines for the entire fleet. You can always check them out at http://www.ehnet.org/guidelines.php. Sites MUST follow the rules laid out in the guidelines, and we at the Internet Office highly recommend considering the suggestions.

*Rules: *

• Sites MUST have links to the EH Disclaimers (http://www.emperorshammer.org/disclaim.htm) and EH Privacy Policy (http://www.emperorshammer.org/privacy.htm) pages displayed on the main page of their site or on the navbar.

• Sites may NOT use tsx.org as a redirection service.

• Obviously, all sites must abide by Bylaws and AoWs.

• Sites who do not obey these rules will not be linked to by any major EH site. Webmasters who do not comply after being asked to may be subject to Security Officer action.

• The Internet Officer reserves the right to add rules to these at any time.

*Strong Suggestions: *

• Sites with excessively long URLs should consider domain redirection provided by http://www.stardestroyer.org.

• All sites should be compatible with the latest version of major browsers (IE 6 and Netscape 6).

• Sites should preferably be optimized for 800x600 resolution, but if it is necessary, 1024x768 is also acceptable.

• A good idea is to run your site through the W3C HTML Validator (http://validator.w3.org/) and CSS Validator (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/).

• Do not have unnecessary large images, popups, or Java applets on your page. They slow down loading time tremendously.

• A warning about using MS Word and older versions of Frontpage to create websites: they add in large amounts of unnecessary tags, which slow down loading times.

These aren't too much to ask for I hope, but all EH sites MUST follow these rules.
