MSIE
This website was developed on HomeSite 2.5, specifically for Netscape 3. If you are using Microsoft's Internet Explorer, sorry, but you probably won't be able to get the best from this site, as there are elements which MSIE does not support. Consider changing to Netscape. Ongoing analysis of my Live Radio pages shows that 61% of visitors are using Netscape (Versions 2, 3, and 4), the remainder using a mixture of MSIE and other software. Netscape 4.5 is now available in beta and appears very stable - unfortunately it doesn't display images as they are downloading though, which is why I still use 3.05...
The design also took into consideration the hardware available today - everyone I know uses a screen resolution of at least 800 x 600 pixels, running 65000 colours. I use this myself, and my PC's nothing special: it started life as a Gateway 2000 486 SX-33 (4SX-33) with 8mb RAM, and through various upgrades is now an 83MHz Pentium (using an OverDrive processor on the 486 board) with 32mb RAM and 1.5 Gb on 2 Western Digital "Caviar" hard disks. The video is based on a Cirrus Logic CL-5428 chipset with only 1mb of video RAM and runs the above resolution without any problems, so give it a try.

If you're using a resolution of 640x480, you may have to scroll the display sideways. I've tried to minimise the need for this by keeping the graphics below a width which will require sideways scrolling, but this isn't always possible (or desirable). Graphics may look grainy if you're using only 256 colours.

I've tried to make this site as easy to use as possible and if you have any comments (good or bad), I'd be pleased to hear them. There's an email link in the little "menu bar" which appears on all of the main pages.

Anyway, whatever you're using, I hope you find your visit useful and maybe even enjoyable.
