NEW-LOOK UNIVERSITY WEB SITE

 
"The new site incorporates the University brandmark, includes more photos and is more accessible than our previous design"
Web Team

Monday 15th September 2003

Information Services launched a brand new design for the University website today. Although the content and structure remain the same, the way the site looks has been revamped to incorporate the new University brandmark and to reflect its colours. We've also added a lot more photographs to the site which illustrate various aspects of life at the University and which show off our beautiful campus. In addition to this we have made improvements to the navigation of the site which means that you'll be able to find your way around more easily than ever before.

As well as being more attractive than the previous design, the new look is also more accessible to disabled Web site users. All the new photos have text alternatives which describe them to people who can't see them. We've also ensured that all the text - including that which appears in navigation bars - is scalable. This means that users who have set their browsers to display text larger or smaller than the default will be able to see our site's text in the size they want.

We hope that you like the new design. Feel free to browse around and if you'd like to let us know what you think please email the Web Team: webcontent@buckingham.ac.uk .
