Screen resolutions

This site is designed to be fluid and viewed at whatever screen resolution you want to use. However there is a minimum screen size where the design starts to degrade slightly and that is set to be 800x600 pixels. According to our site statistics there are still a significant proportion of people viewing the site at that resolution (although it has been steadily falling).

The site is designed to look best at 1280 x 1024 pixels. If viewed wider than you may find that the line length is too long to comfortably read.
