I decided that, as of this date, it is established PLM - Standard Lupércio Mundim (for creating Web sites) and all my sites (even those created before this decision), should follow him to my friends and visitors of my sites to know that on any site I find the same quality as presented in this standard, which establishes the following basic rules:
- All my sites are being absolutely ethical, which means that they will respect copyright laws and national and international established and present the credits page, stating the origin of all material used on the site, such as texts, poems, photos, graphics, textures, and others;
- All my sites, except the Lupe's Jokes (click here to visit), which is a site of jokes, will be familiar and approved to people of all ages, its contents will not display pornography or any material that may be offensive, discriminatory, disgusting, violent or illegal;
- All my sites are nice, using a combination of colors to create a beautiful environment that makes it easier to read and more enjoyable and pleasing to the sight, will not be used violent contrasts, blinks or any other device that makes the observation of the site unpleasant, boring or inappropriate.
- Special attention will be given to navigation, with easy to read menus present on every page, guiding the visitor. Menus may be text or graphics, but will be clearly legible and placed (in the same place at the top of the page) and options easy to understand.
- All my sites should, where possible, provide free services to its visitors, as a free graphics page or a page for download free software, so the visitor knows that one of the qualities of our sites is that they are useful as well of beautiful and interesting;
- Two of my sites, the Recanto (Portuguese) and site4u (English), sell web design services, but all others must provide content and services absolutely free, without any links in its scripts or outside of them representing some kind of commercial advertising (see item below).
- In my sites there are no paid advertising, the use of mini-banners (150x60 pixels) are for the indication of other sites or similar services, all of my own. The mini-banner Nitelands (click here to visit), present in all the home pages of my sites, is a return for the partnership I have with this wonderful company, therefore, gives me discounts on hosting of my sites.
- The links that can be found on my sites and leading to some company website are simple links related to the subject of the site, for example, in my site Lyon (click here to visit) has interesting links about Lyon, or are a kind to a friend, which is very rare.
- All my sites use photos of my own or that have been legally acquired for this purpose on Fotolia (click here to visit). The few photos that are not of my own or were acquired by me, were obtained in sites that offer them free and legally, which is very rare these days. In these cases I declare the site on the credits page, with a link to it.
- All persons who participate in my sites with texts or poetry of its authorships shal autorizel, if possible in writing, this participation, in the case of a deceased person, his family (a son, for example) should allow the publication of his works on my sites. Ethics comes first;
When the visitor see a link to a site of my own, he can click it without worrying, knowing that they all follow this standard of quality set forth herein, which is a guarantee of find (no false modesty) a nice, ethical and interesting site.
