Clickable Icons for the site

Would you like to advertise the site? All you have to do is copy the code in the text area and then place the code on your profiles/website that allows html code. These banners are free and can be forwarded to friends who'd like to do the same. I only have one set finished below.

Just a note - since these images will likely be on sites for/about blindness and visual impairment, you should add alt text to the HTML people are supposed to copy and paste, so that screen readers can read them.

I was just about to say something. Also, nothing came up for me when I went to the site; just adds and darkness. Is there supposed to be more?

Ok, try it now....... blindvi April 9 2006, 18:44:04 UTC

Alt tags were placed in the images. They show on my end. Once I submit this comment, I will update the entry. Thanks for pointing that out. It'll also be in the text areas.

Both links open to their destination. I made sure of this before advertising the banners. Due to the free accounts on Angelfire, they've been Ad Happy. Which as much as I love their service, they need to make a option for those who are screen reader users (but they wont) for text ads.

The thing is, I was able to bring those banners down the bottom of the page. And it worked with Jaws. But when I put the code in for the body bgcolor, the ad saw it as a body tag, and brought the ads back up.

Right now, my time is on DSL research as I need the speed to do what I do on here daily. So once I go broadband, I'll start refocusing on the website.

Does this answer any questions?

I just fixed the front page's body tags (just the nav bar and one page.) and I was able to bring the ads back down to the bottom. So this shouldn't interfeer with Jaws until you hit the bottom of the nav frame's page or the main frame's page. Either way Jaws will see the ads.

Like I said, once I get DSL all taken care of (my main priority) I'll then focus on purchasing the website and there will be no more ads. If we can find another sponsor wonderful, if not we'll have to make do with what we have.

About your game listing. Just an Idea. doggirl3 July 28 2006, 01:54:00 UTC

How about a blue dot or a brl letter to tell the person which is free or not. Just an idea.
