alianoraDoes anyone on my flist (besides lightgetsin) use a screenreader to access lj/dw? Or does anybody on the flist have low vision and so need alt text for pics and things?
Im asking because Im trying to make my picspams more accessible, so I'm going back and adding in alt text for every pic. I need someone who might be willing to look over the one i've already done and let me know if i am being descriptive enough, coherent enough..etc. It would be really awesome if someone who uses a screenreader would be willing to look it over, but I'm not sure who else on my lists have visual impairments.
..I might not have anyone, but darn it, I'm going to make things accessible ANYWAY, just in case. so there.
also, hi! I've been gone for a while due to travel and puking kid and whatnot. fun fun!
ALSO: regardless of how well you know me or whatever, if you happen to notice at any point that Im not making something accessible to some member of the disabled community, leave me a comment or send me an email, as i might not notice on my own.
