Viewing this Site:
This site is probably best viewed in full-screen mode - either:
- Press f11 and move mouse to top of page
- Use View - full screen
Accessibility:
The aim of our site is to be as legible as possible whilst giving a good deal of information. It meets most external requirements for accessibility and uses a sans-serif font which is said to be the most easily read. The font size is quite large and the line spacing has been "opened out".
If, however, you still find the text size chosen too small, then you can take the following steps:
In Internet Explorer:
- Open the View menu Select Text Size Select a larger text size - larger or largest if your default is medium sized text.
- Continue browsing
Using Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome
- Increase the text size by holding down the CTRL key and pressing +
- Decrease the text size using CTRL -
Using Opera
- Open View menu in browser
- Select zoom and choose a magnification greater than 100%
Using Safari
Use view - make text bigger/smaller
Take care when using some methods to view larger text as it can destroy the formatting of any page in any web site. If you are frequently resorting to the settings in your browser to view larger text, please let me know using the contact link below.
Browser choice:
Viewing this site in a version of IE earlier than 6 is likely to lead to page formatting and layout problems as these versions are not CSS compatible. As a result Internet Explorer users are recommended to use version IE8 rather than IE7 as this latest version has greater Cascading Style Sheet compatibility and is quicker and more secure.
The site works well with Firefox 3, Google Chrome, Safari, and Opera all four of which are reportedly highly compliant with CSS standards.
Go to the links page, then useful links page, to download the latest versions of these browsers.
PDF files:
In
order to distinguish links to Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files, which open in a new window, all
such files are now indicated using the Adobe PDF file icon
and an indication of the
file size in kilobytes is also given - the larger the file, the longer it will
take to download.
Clicking the link will open the file in the browser but if you wish to save the file then right click the document or icon and select Save Target As and select the destination for the file.
If you have any problems with such files, or simply wish to update your copy
of Adobe Reader to the most recent version (New: Version 9.3.0 now available), then click the following
icon to link to the Adobe © web site -
A good alternative PDF reader which is reportedly smaller and faster (?) is the Foxit Reader
Finding your way around the site:
The site has been reformatted using new drop down menus produced from Sothink Menu software. Moving your mouse over any item in the menu will display the list of sub-menus available from that title.
If you have problems finding the page you need, please use the Site Map available from the help menu or from a link at the bottom of each page. On this sitemap every page is listed as an active link.
Images on the site
In order to add a degree of objectivity to the choice of image to include on pages in this site, all images selected are chosen from those that have been successful (i.e. placed in the first three of their class) in competitions over the last three years. The only exceptions to this rule being for images on the News' and Club Details pages which have been specifically taken for the purpose.
Over the year it is intended that the images chosen will cover the work of as many different members as possible and will use images from the new season's contests as soon as they are available.
Galleries:
Currently all galleries use the
JAlbum
software and a light box type format called the
Matrix Skin.
On opening the gallery, you should see a matrix of image thumb nails. In order
to progress through the gallery then:
- Click on the first (or any other) thumb nail. This will open a full size
version of the image.
Clicking again on an open image will reduce it back to a thumbnail - To move through the images, use the arrow keys on your key board
- Use right arrow to go to the next image etc.
- On reaching the last image, the large image should fade and then use the link to return to the gallery page (or use your browser's back button).
Links:
Links to external web sites or to other pages within this site are denoted in a standard way throughout the site.
- A link to a site/page which you have not yet visited is a lighter blue. Those links with a very pale blue background inside a pale border are to external web sites *.
- A link over which you hover your mouse turns
white against a grey background. - A link to a page/site which you have recently visited is denoted by a purple font.
Wherever you find text in light blue, this indicates a live link to another page or an external site. This is an increasingly standard way of showing links but if you find it confusing please let me know.
* Links to pages external web sites and PDF files open in a new window each time. Close the window to return to this site. Navigating between pages on this site does not open new windows.
