HOW TO USE THE CHILDREN WEB SITE

We have designed this site to load onto your computer as quickly as possible - there is nothing worse than waiting for minutes on end for pages to load.

Every page has the same navigation tools - one takes you to the top of the page, one takes you to the previous page you viewed and one takes you to the front page of the Webmag.

To see any page with the minimum number of scroll bars, you need to have your display set to at least 800 x 600. 1024 x 768 is preferable.

To reset your display using Windows 95, 98 or XP, click on a blank portion of the desktop with your RIGHT mouse button then, using your left mouse button, click on the Properties bar, then the Settings tab. Move the Screen Area slider to the required setting then click on the Apply button.

If you are using 800 x 600 or greater and the display still does not look right, assuming you are using Microsoft Explorer 3 or greater, pressing the F11 key will toggle full page.

You can also help visibility by clicking on View, click on Text Size and click on Smallest.

It is also easier on the eye if your display is set to more than 256 colours. It should be at least 16 bit colour or preferably 24 or 36 bit. To change these settings, when in Windows 95, 98, 2000 or XP (but not while in a program), click on a blank area of the desktop with your RIGHT mouse button. Click on 'Properties' then 'Settings' and make the alteration there. Click on 'Apply' and your new colour settings will take effect.

If you wish to print any of the articles, simply click on the 'Print' icon at the top of the screen or click on File, then Print then OK.

Note: If you have sensitive files on your computer - perhaps case files - which you have deleted, are you aware that they can still be accessed by unauthorised people? Windows stores all deleted files in 'secret' areas of your computer including all internet sites you have visited. To completely delete sensitive information from computers, we use a programme called CyberScrub which permanently deletes all your deleted files and all the garbage files which build up after using the internet. It is an excellent little inexpensive programme and you can have a free trial of it from their web site - click here.
