Hello everybody...

What would you think about a specific how to on universal access features the forum offers? By that I mean enhancements for people with vision challenges (i.e.: size increase, contrast enhancement, zoom feature, inverted colors, etc.), compatibility with automated readers/voiceovers for people with hearing challenges, and compatibility with other assistive devices used by people with disabilities. I've noticed many of these features are already on the forum, and so a single thread explaining how to utilize these features could be beneficial. You may already have a thread on this and I havent seen it so if so, please disregard. Just my :2c:. Thanks for letting us give feedback :)

Good idea. We'll have a think about this one.

We will actually need help here because we don't have an expert on the accessibility features and will need to ask for help. I agree that it is worth doing.

If you have any questions on it, feel free to shoot me a PM and I can give you my email/cell. As someone with a disability myself, I have done a lot of work in the classroom and in the field and I'd be glad to help in any way that I can. The actual things to offer are pretty basic and you have some of the features already. I imagine many forums are now starting to add on/build new features for this, much like modern operating systems have begun doing given assistive devices have come a very long way, and they increase the quality of life for many, much like the electronic cigarette.
