About this site
Web Browsers
This site will likely look horrible if you are using a very old web browser or those that do not follow these standards well. I’m assuming that if you are using Netscape Navigator 4.x it will look pretty horrendous. It may still look a little funky in Microsoft Internet Explorer (especially versions 6 and older). It should be usable in any modern web browser, and it should look good in any browser that follows modern web standards. I suggest Opera, Mozilla Firefox, or Google Chrome. It also displays perfectly well in text-based browsers, such as Lynx (last I checked it was fine in lynx, links, links2, elinks, and w3m), though it understandably looks a little plain. :-)
Sticky
The little guy’s name is Sticky. I think he's awesome. My wife hates him (especially his wonky eye).
Accessibility Statement
This site attempts to follow the standards and recommendations of the W3C. All pages should be valid XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2 (with a few additions from CSS 3 to make it prettier).
I've also tried to ensure that all pages are as accessible as possible to people with disabilities. To that end the following accesskeys have been set:
- 1
- the home page
- 0
- site and accessibility information (this page)
The site should function well with screen readers and other assistive technologies. All pages should also conform to the WAI's accessibility guidelines. I believe I have achieved Level AA conformance, and the only aspects of Level AAA conformance I did not meet are ones I felt did not apply to my site with its current structure.
If you find any pages that are not valid or do not conform to these guidelines, please let me know so I can remedy the situation.
