Hello Kevin,

 I tried to sign into the Chill Out Lounge but it said that the site was not available. Let me know when to try again. I can't wait.

I just posted a message on there. Nice job, and very accessible with VoiceOver on the Mac. However, one part that is not fully accessible for screen reader users is the registration. I want to try and create one of these for my website and an online comm which I'm possibly going to create for a local writers group I'm in, but the Boards2Go registration has a visual-only CAPTCHA about which I contacted them just a bit ago. Are you using that one or the Heliohost registration? The Heliohost registration seems to be completely accessible on the Mac with VoiceOver. But in any case, thanks for creating this.

I would use heliohost.  Thanks for the kind words and tell your friends about the network!

I just created an account on there, and my website is in progress. What I'm planning to do is link to it from my Dreamwidth website, and just have the new one contain my personal contact info although there seems to be a lot of cool stuff there so I'll see. Very accessible though on the Mac with VoiceOver and Chromevox Classic.
