Australis 100  |
Simon Kirby is the author of this site's graphics, photos, text and code. He is 32, lives in Melbourne, and bears a startling resemblance to President Flappo when he wears a cheap pair of safety glasses. He has never owned a pet but he does have his own WWW home. And, yes, he does do multimedia for a living. |

| Thank you
|
To my current hosts, Vicnet, for their generosity and support. (Nick, the tip was invaluable!) To my once bountiful employers, the late Empire Ridge, for the server space and the after hours access to resources. To my once-were-workmates and now-are-friends: John Brand, Steve Taylor (for his constant interest), Will Trumble (who taught me much about graphics by example), and Bryce Coxhead, for all his timely technical assistance. To my best friends: Simone Foong, Andrew Macleod, Vicki Simon and Simon Anderson, for all their valuable feedback and for the on-line poofreaders, er, proofreaders-par-excellence: Steve Taylor, Katrina Ben, Doug Palmer and Alison Wain. And to Roland Gallois, who inadvertently set the ball rolling two years ago, when he didn't film my mockumentary script, "Journey to Australis". June 1997 |

This update has resulted in every page of the 100 being illustrated, the addition of a "news" section as well as the inclusion of Javascript roll-overs for all the links. Beyond the creation of a weekly Australis Bulletin (in progress) that will live on a list-server, the site is now closed. Enjoy. October 1998 |

| Compatibility

Throw away your current browsers and use Opera - a faster neater browser that fits on a floppy. This site looks fine on it, as does the rest of the internet. This site has also been tested on NSCA Mosaic 2.0.1 for Macintosh Power PC, Netscape 2.0-4.0 (for Macintosh and Windows) and Microsoft Internet Explorer 2.0-4.0 (for Macintosh and Windows). It can best be viewed in Thousands of Colours and by version 3.0 browsers (and later) because it makes extensive use of the <font FACE> HTML tag that allows you to specify font s. The font
s specified are:
It has also been designed to accommodate Non-Frames capable browsers as well as including ALT tags behind all graphics. Text menus are supplied for those whose browsers don't support Client Side Image Maps for the navigation menus. (The menu frames are resizeable with text links to be found under the menu graphic.) |
