Do you have an external site? Would you like to have it tested by
other h2g2 researchers to see if it looks good, if all the links
and pop-out menues and other gadgets work in all browsers and all
resolutions?

Then you've come to the right place! Start a conversation below
titled something like: 'Testing: Titania's photo site' (and that's just an example - don't post Titania's photo
site unless your h2g2 researcher name is Titania, and unless
you have a photo site!).

Please note that this entry is intended to be a forum only for
web site testing and only web site testing!.


For other queries, please check the 'Links' sections.

This is early days yet, so I haven't finished thinking yet - I was
thinking that maybe we could offer to check h2g2 entries as well?
I have noticed that some user pages don't look good in all skins -
and some researchers can't check their user page in various skins
(Digibox users among others, I think).

Anyway, to get this thing started...
