Technical stuff

I have had a video camera (Sharp Viewcam) and video capture board (The original Creative Video Blaster) for some years now, therefore I am able to present a wealth of graphics on these pages. My father has a colour scanner which I keep dust free for him also, so I can include graphical content from other sources here too. These pages may therefore be reasonably demanding on your hardware. I produce the pages using 16 bit colour with a viewing area of 800x600 pixels, but they look fair enough in 256 colours, 640x480 if that is what you use. Any less than that and you are better off turning off the graphics and benefitting from the increase in loading speed for text alone.

If your browser loads to a cache and saves the content, then you will benefit from reading the lengthier passages of text off-line. In Windows95, go to C:\Windows\History and double click the page's html file (onetreeh.htm) to launch it in your browser. Press cancel if it tries to dial, it should then still load the page on the browser. All those links that you activated on line will still be available off-line. If this does not work, go to C:\Windows\Temporary Internet Files and copy the (onetreeh.htm) file to another directory then drag and drop it into your browser.

I have tried to restrict the number of images per page and also their size, but this gives me no pleasure. Not wishing to skimp on the graphics, I have simply added more pages to accomodate them. In order that you needn't wait for things to load that you didn't really want to see anyway, I have tried to label and index the pages so that you can go directly to that which may interest. I wish you success and trust that your efforts wont be wasted.
