You may use any of
the small graphics to the right to link to the
American Ethical Union (www.aeu.org). No further permission is required
for their use for that purpose. You must
copy the image to your server as we periodically change the names of
the images to prevent "bandwidth borrowing."
For use of other graphics on these pages please
 to request permission to use them, and please
link to this page and give proper credit for their copyright. Graphics copyright © 1997 and 1998

Official committees of the AEU are urged
to submit news of AEU-wide, national and general interest to be
considered for inclusion on the AEU website. Proposed material is
more likely to be included in a timely fashion if you:
 |
Submit a short news item or a
"blurb" introducing longer material that will be included elsewhere on
the site. See the AEU News page for suggested
style. |
|
Submit dates to the AEU
Calendar on the calendar page using the form
there |
|
Please suggest the page (URL)
where the material would best fit into the organization of the site |
|
Submit a version of flyers and
registration forms in Word or already converted to
Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format.
Not everyone can download and read Word (.doc) documents, so these will
usually be converted to Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format.
 |
Use only standard fonts (Times Roman or
Arial are preferred). |
|
Format for standard letter-size paper
with at least 1 inch margins. |
|
Use images only free of copyright
restrictions and if needed. Also make sure each image is no larger than
30K in size (check your file directory for the size of image files) to
save precious space on the AEU server and save downloading time. |
|
|
Submit a version of the flyer or
announcement that will convert easily to web format. Check other
pages on this site for style, and consider what is easy and effective to
read online. Word documents do not easily translate to web pages.
If composing in Word for converting to an AEU web page, follow these
simple guidelines:
|
Keep margins so that the page width from
right to left is only 4 inches. |
|
Use no fonts larger than 14 points are
used. Ten points is preferable for most text, with 12 for
headlines if desired. |
|
Use only standard fonts (Tahoma,
Trebuchet, Times Roman and Arial are preferred). |
|
Don't include page breaks, columns or
tables; if you want separate pages, submit each as a separate document
file. |
|
Paragraph formatting will be lost -- for
instance, every paragraph return will produce a double space, paragraph
indenting will likely be lost. |
|
Centering is usually not an appealing
format online. |
|
Bullet points work well online, up to two
or three levels. (This bullet is level 2.) |
|
Unless essential and free of copyright
restrictions, don't include images and make sure each image is smaller
than 30K in size (smaller is even better). |
