I've submitted about half of my links now, but lost count of where I was. Oops. I'll start
from the other end and work backwards until I get moaned at for repetition! LOL

Does anyone know the URL's of any role playing search engines that Spelljammer websites
can also be submitted to? If I get time after playing with DMOZ I'll have a go with them
as well.

On a similar, but not entirely related note: Do you know who manages the Spelljammer Web
Ring? I've seen a few sites that don't seem to link up properly on that. I think that some
of the website owners don't know how to use the link code correctly, although as I'm not a
member of any webring I'm not entirely sure that the lack of links is not down to the
webring itself not working or the webring author making a mistake when they set up the
HTML code that people copy and paste onto their pages.

If we could persuade people that create Spelljammer website content to use DMOZ, the
Spelljammer webring and special role playing websites, we could make things a lot easier
for *everyone* to find.
