This site was built using an Apple G4 (400MHz & OS 9.2.2), Adobe Golive V5 and Photoshop 5.5. The rotating animated gif & navigation button I put together using Strata 3D, Photoshop 5.5 & ImageReady 2.0. The rotating copyright symbol came from a website of free animated graphics whose URL I've forgotten & the Toughbear from another site whose URL I've also forgotten (sorry). The bear at desk is from a Microsoft clip-art library that came with Office 98. All other graphics and photographs were made using Photoshop 5.5 & ImageReady 2.0. All photographs are watermarked using Digimarc software and are saved at the lowest resolution I thought OK on a 17" monitor, partly to reduce download times, but also to make them as unusable off-screen as possible. This does make some look a bit grainy. As I state elsewhere, none of my photographs are in the public domain and all remain my copyright, please respect this.

The site was viewed during construction with Internet Explorer only on Macs (although no reports of problems from friends visiting using Windows PCs). Unfortunately, IE5, with its new rendering engine, displays the text larger and seems to mess up certain things, on a Mac at least. This seems to be fixed by setting font size to 12 & resolution to 72 ppi/dpi (the IE 4 Mac defaults) in preferences in IE5.
