# Blanket Fort Webring
This is a webring of cool and/or comfy websites (HTTP/S). It's
probably mostly going to have hackers and makers in it, but I'd love
to have visual artists, musicians, and other cool creators join the
webring.
## Want to join the webring?
At the moment, I (Vi Grey) am the person who gets to decide whether or
not someone joins the webring.
There are a few absolute requirements I have:
* Anyone who joins needs to be able to modify their front page to add
a webring navigator (the point of a webring after all is to make a
ring from site to site)
* The site should be mostly navigatable if Javascript is turned off on
the viewer's browser
* The site should be generally "self made" (We don't buy blanket forts
from a store, we make them!)
* The site should have at least some content that isn't a blog
Even if you follow the requirements, there's no guarantee that I'll add
your site to the webring, so please be aware of that. I can also
remove a site from the webring for any reason, so please also be aware
of that.
With that said, if you're still interested in joining the webring, you
can send me an email at vi [at] vigrey.com requesting me to add your
site. Please include something along the lines of "Webring site add
request" in the email subject so I can figure out what your email is
about.
## Put the webring navigator on your site
```
<div id="blanket_fort_webring">
<h2>Blanket Fort Webring</h2>
<a href="https://vigrey.com/webring/id/{your-id}/prev" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><< Prev</a> -
<a href="https://vigrey.com/webring/id/{your-id}/random" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Random</a> -
<a href="https://vigrey.com/webring/list" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Full List</a> -
<a href="https://vigrey.com/webring/id/{your-id}/next" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Next >></a>
<br>
<a href="https://vigrey.com/webring/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">What is this?</a>
</div>
```
Replace {your-id} with your id in the webring. For instance, my id is
"vigrey", so my "next" link would be
"https://vigrey.com/webring/id/vigrey/next". You can find your id in
the "list.json" file in the root directory of this repository.
## Future Work
Over time, I'd like to find ways to decentralize the webring so folks
don't have to rely on me and my webserver to host everything, but that's
a thing for future me to figure out.
