Member Guidelines
Member Guidelines
Who can participate? |
| Any member of Show-Me Net may have a reasonable (about 5MB) amount of space on our server to create a home page. We believe this helps server our educational goals and, hopefully, will help provide a group of individuals who will be able to help other organizations become more traditional information providers. In order for us to retain our non-profit status, the information must be non-commercial. |
Is there a charge? |
| There is no additonal charge to have a home page. The only thing you have to pay is any annual membership fee. |
What next? |
| http://www.showme.net/members/htmlclub.htm contains lots of information about how to write html, how to use FTP, and how to add information to our server. When you get this all worked out you should then submit the form (included there) to have your pages added to our directory of members' pages. |
Are there any restrictions on information provided to Show-Me Net? |
| Our restrictions are primarily dictated by the law and our available resources. We do not intend to dictate to an organization what they can contribute, but we must protect our non-profit status. We have chosen to comply with the Acceptable Use Policies established by MOREnet. |
| While your web page may include graphics, you must be careful about copyright infringement. Most of the users who access the information will be using slow modem links. Therefore the graphics should be as small as reasonable so the downloads will be as short as possible. |
| The following types of information will not be accepted for dissemination by Show-Me Net: advertising, sale or rental of items for commercial gain, invitations to do business on a Show-Me Net posting, slanderous material, hate messages, materials inciting or advocating violence, and obscene material. |
| Submission of material is done at your own risk and information providers are responsible for any information, message, or other material provided and posted on Show-Me Net. Information providers, not Show-Me Net, are responsible for any and all damage resulting from copyright infringement or any other harm. |
| Information providers are responsible for the accuracy of information submitted to Show-Me Net. Show-Me Net will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by a user's reliance on information obtained on the Show-Me Net. The information provider shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Show-Me Net from any difficulty related to any material placed on Show-Me Net. |
| What other responsibilities do you have? |
| Information must be legal; respect copyright laws and other restrictions listed above. |
| Each page should include a 'last modified' date. |
| All pages must include a link to Show-Me Net. (Look at the sample below.) |
| All pages must identify the provider of the information. |
| A method of contacting the individual should be provided. |
| If the data is so popular that outside traffic interferes with our mission, we will have to remove it. |
