» AFFILIATES & ADVERTISING «

'High' Minds is proud to affiliate with Gaia Guilds and Movements,
as well as extra-Gaian sites, whose philosophies and/or driving forces...
Well, make such affiliations only logical! whee


If you have or know of a guild, petition, or group of any kind on Gaia that may have
something in common with "High" Minds, or another site that might be of interest to
your fellow guild members, do comment here with a link here and let us know. ^_~

New member recruitment is obviously an important activity. New members keep a guild active and dynamic -- and every guild wants the high membership (no pun intended) that contributes to the rankings!

What we don't want, of course, is to be noticed in a negative way -- spamming peoples' inboxes or in forums that don't allow it is grounds for being flogged with a wet noodle here, and could also get you disciplined (read: suspended, banned) by Gaia.

Banners in your sig or profile is a very good method of passive recruitng. Surfing the forums and looking for cannabis sorts of topics to jump into is great, but keep in mind that it's more polite (and convincing, for that matter) to participate in the topic before and after dropping the link.



  • To start things off, I've made some minibanners for guild use. You may hotlink these, but you are usually better off saving them and uploading them to your own hosting service -- Photobucket is generally the most reliable free host, though the URLs it churns out are on the long side; ImageShack URLs are a little shorter, but the site's a little less user-friendly. Tinypic gives you short URLs, great for a signature with a character limit, but the site tends to be blacklisted on content filters, meaning people might not see the image at all, and the servers don't actually keep the images indefinitely.

Ah, gracias... nothing like that "I know I know more websites, dammit!" feeling... affiliates, though? Not just links? (had a better idea... xd )

Well there's a new drug guild that I'm in. However, they are trying to deal more with people who use more than marijuana to be more of a full out guild.

It's also preaching responsibility which is good. I can give you the link for that if you want to affiliate it (mind you, they tried to invite you faolan with my suggesting, but you don't accept guild invites).

Aye, I just hopped over to take a gander; I don't see a problem with affiliating -- I'm obviously more the "here's the bloody research results, take it from there" sort; I can hold someone's hand and acquaint them with the pitfalls, give pointers... for a few minutes or so! o_O* I mean, the two guilds seem to have slightly different approaches and aims, but we'd probably stand a good chance of sharing each other's member bases. ^^

Seriously psychedelic (which is great!)... Really can't read the text well, though. Is there any way you can bring it out a little?

And it is rather big for a link grapic, but I prefer small buttons anyway -- I've seen people using some huge graphics. Can you reduce the file size any, though?
