a work in progress...

Universal Viewability

I've endeavoured to make this site as universally viewable as possible.

This site (and the other more recently updated ones of mine) are validated by the W3C people for XHTML 1.0 Transitional, CSS, and the Section 508 accessibility thing. I'm constantly tinkering about in the background to make it leaner and faster, and updating with every (well almost) new trick I learn. I'm also gradually working on the next version (Umpteen.1)

To enjoy this site at its most shiny and beautiful, it's best viewed on modern browsers: the latest versions of Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Netscape, Internet Explorer and such. You can check here if you have the latest version of:

In older /different browser versions (to which I don't have access just now) the code might break and mess up the layout. Or worse. I'm sorry, but it's one of the curious foibles of the interweb.

If you are having problems viewing this site please let me know, and I'll do what I can from this end to make it work.

And before I go, a little note on images...

If you have a slow connection, the images may take a moment or two to download. It's always a pay off between image quality and file size, but small file size means fuzzy images, and we don't want that do we? Thank you for your patience.

November 2007

I've just added the little Flash widgetty-doodad to the home page. It's pretty, it's colourful and it can be a bit mesmerising for a while. Pretty shiny thing!

However, being Flash it's broken some of the rules of the W3C people. So just for now this iste is NOT XHTML valid. Do we care? Not while it works. If it doesn't work, let me know ...

July 2007

I've added some bits of JavaScript here and there. I want to use pure CSS to style this site, but accepting some limitations, just for now I've compromised.

If, when you rollover the titles and thumbnails oin the portfolio page, the preview image does not change, then you're experiencing a fine example of why I'd been avoiding JavaScript.

If you use IE you may get a warning about Active X and all that stuff. This is my nice little rollover thing trying to work. You can "Allow Blocked Content" with my personal assurance that nothing nasty should happen.

Or you can ignore this and just view the full size images by clicking on the thumbnails. Your choice, no pressure.

 

 

...now where were we?
