Big Picture Interactive has unrivalled experience in the design and development of standards-compliant, user-centred websites.

Accessibility

'Access for all' isn't just the right thing to do, it's also a sound commercial move and increasingly mandated by law (e.g. by 1995's Disability Discrimination Act).

Ensuring a site is accessible doesn't just benefit those with visual and motor impairments, but also those browsing with mobile phones or PDAs, anyone using older or more obscure software, and search engines.

All our sites comply as fully as possible with the W3C's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, and are built to make good use of other W3C standards such as XHTML and CSS.

Usability

Finding a solution which is both orientated around the user and which meets your needs as a website owner is always vital. Carefully considering every detail of the user interface can make the difference between success and failure.

In addition to designing and building entire websites, we have often acted as interface consultants, adapting existing designs or creating new ones to produce intuitive, attractive page templates.
