Frequently Asked Questions


  1. "Travel Photography" - what's that?

    Travel photography is more than just sbap-shots from another country.
    True Travel Photography will give an insight into another world - a different culture, breathtaking landscapes, or outstanding architecture.
    Travel photography at its best can "take you on a (virtual) journey" to another place....

  2. When I join the Travel Photo Ring, do I have to put the same code as the other sites on my page?

    It would be nice if the code could be customized to fit the general layout of your site. And indeed, this is possible.
    Again, go to "Get Navigation Code". Scroll down.
    Under the correct code for the standard ring navigation you will find a link saying:

    "Members who wish to use the HTML version of this nav bar should go here. "

    This gives you the HTML version of the code. You can change it to suit your taste as long as it remains functional.
    One word of caution though: With the standard code you only have to put the standard code on your site once, even if you join more than one Webring.
    HTML means, you have to haveto get the navigation for each and any ring you belong to.

    The standard bar has been designed in such a way that it looks good on most pages and is relatively small and unobtrusive - especially if your site belongs to more than one ring.
    If you want to have a look, here's an example :

    (You have to get your own code though!)
    There are two options: you can either use the "Server Side Navigation Bar" or a HTML design.
    The Server Side Navigation Bar has the advantage that you do not have to change your page every time you join another ring and that changes to the design (new logo...) will be done automatically.
    On the other hand, HTML is more flexible and you may make the navigation fit the general layout of your page.
    You can get the code for both options at the Ring Sites Overview.
    Just click on your site and then on "Get Navigation Code".
    Examples of customized HTML:

  3. Can I change my information on the ring ?

    Certainly. In order to do this, you have to sign in here.
    There are now two types" of members: Those of you who joined before Webring became a part of Yahoo and continue to use the old "HTML fragment" and the new members who signed in under the new system or shifted their sites to the new system.
    Consequently, on the above page you have two ways of signing in, one with the old Site ID and password, the other one with your new Yahoo ID and Yahoo Password. If you are using the new Yahoo options, you will see a list of the rings you belong to and can edit your ring info by clicking on "edit".
    If you joined under the old system, you get to a form where you enter the following

    Ring ID: travelphoto
    Site ID: (your site ID)
    Password: (your password)

    If you have forgotten any of the above: there are links there for helping you out.

  4. I have forgotten my password. What should I do ?

    Go to the Webring Homepage, you can retrieve your password there.

  5. Don't hesitate to contact me when you still have problems!
