mainly a $10 and $20 S/G player. Built my br from $150 to $800 and would like to start playing ring games a bit more.

What are the main differences in playing ring vs S/G's?

Do you play more draws, loosen up at all etc etc. My style is tight/aggressive. The ring games I've played in I seem to win a little but never a lot. The people doubling up seem to play a lot more "trash hands". I'm thinking I may be playing to tight from being so used to the S/G's.

Any advice?
It's not how many pots you win, it's what's in them that counts.

TAGG will work in ring games just as well.
The rule for cash games for mtt/sng players is that dont stack off with tp/tk unless you have a good reason.

basically, flop sets and get paid and play everything else the same. Taking AA to the river is still a given.

One piece of advice, post as many hands as you can, no matter how standard you may think they are.

Usually the money is deeper and you don't make silly folds to protect your stack.
