viewing options

We recommend that you use a screen resolution of at least 800 x 600 pixels, & use the 'frames' version of our site.
Note: you must be using a version 4 or higher web-browser to utilise the 'frames' feature.

If you are using a lower screen resolution (say 640 x 480) you can either:
a) set your browser to full screen.
b) view this site using the 'no-frames' option. (this option 'pops out' the virtual scenes, leaving the 'location page' open in the background...it is ideal for low screen resolution viewing).

plugins & java viewers

Most of the scenes/tours on this site use java scripting and applets, so you wont need to install anything ob your computer to see them.

Some of the 3D worlds on this website (like the VRML & Metastream tours) require that you have the specific 3D plugin installed.
You may like to install them now from this page.
