Viewing Our Site:
This site is best viewed, meaning it looks and works it's best on a computer with 800 x 600 screen resolution with at least 16 bit color using Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher. If you are viewing this site on Netscape Navigator, WebTV, or an older version browser, we suggest switching to Internet Explorer, it looks so much better.
What does this mean?
Let's start with the screen resolution. If the website appears to large for your screen horizontally, then your resolution is probably set for 640 x 480 screen resolution and should be changed. It is quite easy and once you are used to it you will love it. Things will appear smaller but you can fit much more on your screen. Most sites are now designing for this resolution.
To change your resolution just right-click anywhere on your desktop, then click on Properties, then click on Settings. At the Desktop Area, slide the adjusting bar over to 800 x 600, then click on Apply and OK. Simple.
What about the color setting? This determines the quality of the graphics. If the graphics on this site look very poor, chances are your computer is set to 256 colors and should be changed unless you have an older computer and just don't have the power to do so. Changing is simple. Once again, right-click anywhere on the desktop, click on Properties, then Settings and go to Color Palette, and adjust to at least 16 bit. Remember the higher the number the better the quality of the graphics but it uses more of your computers resources. Click on Apply and OK. You might have to restart your computer for the changes to take affect.
Now let's talk about Browsers. Some people use Netscape Navigator and love it, others Internet Explorer. These are the Big Two. Some people don't know what they use, maybe they are on America Online. There is a new smaller browser called Opera and there is WebTV and a few others. Once again, this site is optimized for Internet Explorer. All browsers interpret html code differently. This browser seems to do the best. If you aren't viewing this site on a later version of Internet Explorer, you should. It looks so much better. And best of all, it's free. You can download it from Microsoft's website. Remember you should be using at least version 4.0. Older versions don't support advanced features.
In conclusion, if you are having an unpleasant viewing experience of our website it is probably related to either the resolution, color, or browser type/version. If you are still having or noticing any problems with this site after making any necessary corrections, please let us know.
Thank you.
