Technical Information

Website History
April 1997 :-   First website was Created and hosted on Demon Internet.

The site is maintained with Microsoft Expression Web 4.
The previous versions relied heavily on Frames, with a mirror Frames free version website, this had the effect of making the whole website difficult to maintain. So this latest (3rd) version has had the frames content removed from the website.
It has been designed to work best with Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 and above, using a minimum screen resolution of 800*600 (1024*768 is better) with a minimum of 16bit colour.

It does work with IE9 and above on Win9x, ME, XP, 7 and should work with other browsers.

The Java scripts used on this website are from www.crays.com/jsc - Copyright Ray Stott
The 'Guestbook' is from www.htmlgear.lycos.com/specs/guest.html.
The 'Hit Counter', 'Mailing List' and 'Pass it on' are from www.bravenet.com.

I hope that this site will work on non-PC machines. I have not been able to test this as I only have access to a PC.
If you do encounter any problems please let me know, so I can make the necessary adjustments. I don't want to exclude non-PC owners, so your help and advice will be appreciated.

Feedback Welcomed : I have tried to make this site informative, evangelistic and interesting. I really would appreciate your views, to help me develop this site in the direction it should go and the way our Lord wants me to take it. Feel free to criticize, praise or suggest any changes or additions.
