Welcome Alessandro!
In response to the smileys: for now, I don't think I want to install any more 3rd party scripts until Ning implements the new Open Social Apps. I appreciate you asking, though. I wish you wonderful success with your venture.

Thank you for adding your Ning Network to the Ning Directory. In order to maximize attention to your Network, - - please change your Member Name to your Network Name: Smileys for Ning, and your Member Photo to your Network Logo. If you have already done this, thank you. THIS WILL HELP GET YOUR NETWORK NOTICED BY VISITORS, AND IS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN MEMBERSHIP. :-) If your personal name and photo are representing your Network, when possible, please add your Professional Title to the end (i.e. Johnny Smith, Musician). When you change your member name here on the Directory, it should not effect any of your other Ning accounts/networks.

THE LIST: Don't forget to add your Ning Networks to THE LIST. You can add multiple Ning Networks under one member account. Be sure to close Discussion/Listing, if you don't want commenting. Note: Limit 2 Listings per Ning Network.

CATEGORY GROUPS: We have 20 special Groups, based on Categories. Be sure to add your Network to the appropriate Group. Same guidelines as THE LIST, limit joining 2 of the special Category Groups, per Ning Network.

BANNER EXCHANGE: Add your Ning Network Ad to our automated Banner Exchange Program - - for Ning Networks only. This is a great way to advertise your Ning Network. You can read all about it here: Banner Exchange
