I have added the website to my collection of good examples.
It�s fast, well structured and graphically simple but reasonable.
(The first page "home" suffers a little from too different 
ingredients and the annoying moving text.

Now I�m waiting for a link to Lee Blevins� website.

That�s a bad style: blaming others without showing one�s own 
probably excellent examples.

I found the text size a bit small to read comfortably, so tried to increase
it and found this didn't work. This prompted me to run it through an
accessibility checker, which was really rather unhappy with it. However, if
they don't want to hire anyone with less-than-perfect eyesight or a
less-than-perfect monitor then that's up to them I suppose.

Whilst I really don't think that's the case, they *are* in the prepress
business.  Looking for bugs really does potentially involve looking at a
large sheet of photographic film through a magnifying glass to see the
problems!  (Though of course you can zoom the stored bitmaps on a monitor -
but it's knowing *where* to look magnified in the first place...)

The text was small and crummy for me also, but View >TextZoom works fine
up to 300% on Internet Explorer 5.1.6 on OS 9.2.2.

Blimey, dunno what you lot are on about. Yes the text's small, but I 
expect that given I'm running at 1600x1200 resolution.  Perfectly 
readable here at that size, and having just tried it at 1024x768 it's 
very big and very readable.

XP and IE6.

I'm sorry for the confusion. I could not get the page to load in either
IE or Safari. It must have been due to so many people hitting the web
site.

It does load for me now and it is a wonderful website. I prefer pages
like that which are simple and have no popups or graphics.

I had the same experience the first time right after I saw Lee's first
post. But when others started commenting as if they had seen something
there, I tried again and did get through.
