I thought it was a very well made site.
What site? Where? Are you replying to somebody?

Oh you mean
http://www.ozones.com
Phew, I'm glad we sorted that out.
Yes, the text on the buttons
was a tad too small but I liked it enough that I spent several hours
there checking things out.
Did you? Good. I glanced at it myself for a few minutes.
Yes the site is very pretty. I actually like the concept and the quite nice
flash (I assume it is). If the navigation buttons were actually readable I
might well say "good job".
However let your imagination run loose for a minute.
You have mild motor neurone syndrome. You are quite capable of dressing
yourself and doing other such things as walking down to the corner pub for a
beer or using a keyboard with that special strap on the arm thingy that
somebody has crafted for you.
You can *not*, however, use a mouse.
This site is totally unusable for you. It does not work without a mouse. It
does not respond to any keyboard scrolling functions, at all. Even the
standard "tab to the next link" is broken.
This site is seriously discriminating against you.
If this were a commercial site hosted in Australia it would be in
contravention of certain legislation regarding web sites. That is, you could
cause the government to issue the owners of the site a "fix it or we will
fine you" order. You could claim compensation for the sites lack of
usability.
This has happened.
The subject of this thread includes the words "professional looking sites".
Well, yes, this is a "professional looking site" (font size excepted). It is
most definitely *not*, however, a "professional site". Big difference.
