All sites we design are thoroughly tested, firstly we test for browser compatibility using both Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator. Statistics show that 70-80% of Web users are browsing the internet with Explorer and 10-20% with Netscape. The reason for this is because Netscape and Explorer both read sites slightly differently, Explorer isn't as strict when viewing sites as Netscape in terms of reading the code. In addition, both browsers also read non-standard HTML code so it is important to only use HTML code set out by www.w3.org which ensures cross-browser compatability.

We also test all sites at several different screen resolutions and on a Windows and Unix Platform to guarantee compatibility. The sites are tested on computers with slow connections and the validity of every piece of coding on our sites are tested with older internet browsers to ensure the page is accessible to all Internet users.

We use two high end computers connected to the internet via a high-speed DSL connection. All of our HTML coding is done on Dreamweaver or EMACS, every page is coded directly from source meaning we have total control over every design aspect of every page.

Our animation work is mostly done using Flash although we also use Animation Shop when required to design animated .GIF's and all of our graphical designs are performed using Adobe Photoshop, the industry standard. For 3D Modelling and Rendering we mostly use Bryce although we also use 3D Studio Max when more complex 3D design work is required.

We also use several other packages for specific tasks such as ensuring colour coordination of every page and search engine submission.
