Who are the organizers? What are your purpose?

If you have not visited our collaborative image gallery, it is here. We do not put a link "BACK TO THE SHEREMEY'S GALLERY" in large bold font since our gallery should be in equal curcumstances as other ring galleries. Moreover, that our well-promoted gallery plays a role of the main "donor of visitors" for the ring (stats is available), and so we appeal to your nobleness and hope you would allow the visitors travelling around the ring to visit other sites after yours too. Purpose? The creative people are dispersed in the internet, and a kind of "crystallization" would benefit to all providing more qualified visitors to each site. Morover, I afraid that in Russia the disbalance between huge creative potential and the present state of electronic communication is especially dramatic.

Are there special requirements for my site to join the ring?

Your site should contain original artworks in visual media by russian (or native russian living outside Russia) authors. The latter condition is not so rigid and interesting authors from other countries working in visual media are welcome to participate. Your site may not contain so-called "adult material" (artistic nudity is welcome), psychically destructive mages and copyrighted material taken from other sites without permission of the copyright holder. RINGMASTER RESERVES THE RIGHT NOT TO INCLUDE A SUBMITTED SITE TO THE RING.

What benefit would I have?

More visitors to your site and easier communication with your colleagues (we spent a several hours online looking for dispersed russian galleries). By the way, feel free to use this source to promote your page right now...

May I put the VRWR HTML code on a page other than index.htm?

Yes. However... We are not a directory simply asking for reciprocal link for our benefit. The ring is a whole system and the promotion of it is a deal of each member. The essential condition to maintain the ring alive is to place the ring HTML on the same page as you have indicated as the entry to your site (it may be any page with link to your homepage, for example). But once more, we appeal to your understanding that the ring may stay alive thanks to each member.

May I change the provided HTML code or delete a provided graphic image?

Sometimes it's really difficult to integrate the any additional image into your unique web design. Please contact ringmaster in each individual case. Variants are possible. You may even propose the better image. The ring is our common deal.

May I leave the ring at any time?

Of course, no problem. For the convenience of the others, please send e-mail to ringmaster telling you want to leave. Your site will be excluded from the ring configuration in order not to allow ring to be interrupted. No obligations. Enjoy the additional traffic and leave at any moment...
