Design
The site has been structured in a straightforward and easy to navigate format, and has been designed to enable users with 800 x 600 pixel screen resolution to view the pages without horizontal scrolling, which means it should be possible for everyone to view our site.
We have selected a font which is easy to read in size and colour, and pictures and graphics have been optimized to keep download times to a minimum.
For users with reader software, we have preferred text links over images, used clear hyperlink descriptors, and included ALT and TITLE text for all foreground images, enabling you to experience the bigger picture.
