I made some mistakes of not rejecting kill missions against Minmatar and Gallente forces. Now I have -1.2 for Gallente. Ooops. Am I now unable to enter Gallente space?

Summary
What are my standings and what do they do?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Body
The standings set by the game are indicators of your stature towards NPC entities: agents, corporations and factions. All NPC corporations also have standings between themselves as well as with player corporations.
Your standing with a particular agent affects the quality of his missions. The higher it goes, the more rewarding and less time-consuming your missions will be.
Your standing with a particular corporation currently dictates the availability of its agents to you. A high standing makes the better, higher-level agents want to do business with you.
Your standing with a particular faction (such as the Amarr Empire, the Minmatar Republic, and so on) determines whether entire NPC corporations allied with that faction are available to you. Once it gets high enough, you can access every agent of every such NPC corporation so long as the agent's minimum requirement is lower than your faction standing.
If it gets too low, however, you ruin the risk of being attacked by that faction's Navy, much like low security status can get you in trouble.
Note that if any one of these three standings drops below -2.0, you may find yourself unable to get work from agents.
A faction rating of -2.0 or below would thus eliminate you from working for any agent from any corporation belonging to that faction. If your faction standing has dropped below -2.0 and you want to get it back up to get agent work, train the Diplomacy skill. If that skill's bonuses do not suffice to bring you back up above -2.0, though, you are going to have a hard time raising the standing. It can still be done, by doing important missions for allies of that faction or by intentionally declining/quitting/failing important missions for that faction's enemies, but it's going to take quite a bit of work and time.
If it's your standing towards the NPC corporation, or the NPC agent himself, however, you cannot raise it at all - so if Diplomacy doesn't work, we suggest you move on to some other corporation or faction.
A player corporation standing's towards other NPC factions/corps is calculated in this way:
You take the standing of each member (towards the NPC entity in question), add them all up and then divide by the number of members that have the standing already in their charactersheet. The ones who do not have a standing towards the entity are not taken into account.
Also, the standings increase / decrease gradually, so if a member joins and he has a +10 standing towards an NPC corp that no other member has standings towards, then the corp standing does not increase to +10 overnight. It will take several days for the standing to reach that status.
