Well,
this is not a support request, I'm sorry, but I didn't find any place to thank you for this theme.
I'm a blind user, and I searched a drupal accessible theme for months to put on my website.
Ok, visual impaired people have no problems with drupal sites, but for low-vision is different: many themes are not resizable because they define in the css font in px, not in %, so IE can't enlarge fonts.
Now I solved all problems!
Still thank you for your great work.

Steve Lockwood commentedHi Drein,
Sorry I took so long replying to your message. It's good to hear that someone likes my theme. I actually got criticized quite a bit for some aspects of my approach so I was wondering where to go next with it.
It would be good to hear which of the features you found most useful - I note what you have said about relative font sizes so I presume I got that one right! Did you find any of the other features helpful? Eg:
- high contrast style sheets
- large font style sheets
- accessibility keys (people are telling me these should not be used as they conflict with browser software)
Your views are most welcome.
Regards
Steve

mohammed76hi steve!
I am a blind web designer too. high-contrast, and large-small font css as well as nav links are features I like most about your theme.
I don't think access keys are necessary, but if you could make it so that these are disabled it would be good.
however, I believe the accessibility features should go all to drupal core, or at least be developed into a module to be reused in other themes.
I will be taking code from your theme for my next project and will link to it to show you how I could make use of it.
again, thanks alot for your great efforts.
