 Hi.
 could some one take a look at my site and give me feedback, if you can
 read the text, blind and vision impaired users, if they can read the
 text, etc.
 and what other accessability features, i may need to put in, or
 general comments or feedback.
 cheers Marvin.

RE: [WSG] Review Accessability Of My Site

Hi Marvin

Just a quick check:
- With images off, the contrast between text and background is very low. 
- Text on a patterned background is relatively difficult to read - not
specifically for blind/vision-impaired. 
- In IE6, large text overlaps - line height is insufficient as you have set
the font size as a percentage and the line heigth in pts.
- blockquote should be reserved for block quotations.
