[Nfb-krafters-korner] What would You Like to See On The Web Site ...

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

Super idea!  Sure beats having to save every e-mail that interests us
and having duplicates!

I want to add to Eileen's suggestions.  A list of links where you can go
to sign up for newsletters, pod casts, patterns, materials, tutorials,
etc. for various crafts would be helpful.  I think you might want to
consider adding a disclaimer that by posting these links does not ensure
that they are accessible to someone using assistive technology.  I do
not think that we should not post something because one group of
assistive technology users cannot access the site, but maybe a one line
comment from our members if they have experienced a problem accessing a
site.  I am not saying that it would be the responsibility of our web
site organizers to test the accessibility of resources.  Resources would
have made it to the list because a member suggested it as they found it
relevant to the craft(s) they enjoy doing.

I'd like to see a listing of known crafts that blind people in the group
are known to do successfully, links to sites that sell items that will
help assist specifically a blind craftsperson & links to places where
accessible books/information can be located on the specified craft.  If
an actual
pattern(s) is posted, I think then they should be patterns written by
the people in the group and on the site, like any other site that gives
free patterns copyrights to both the designer & NFB are stated.
Remember, you can't post a pattern without express permission of
designers/publishers, otherwise it is copyright violation.  You can
provide links that anyone can go and get the necessary information.  

As for other links, perhaps on a separate page (if possible, good
sources for purchasing supplies).  

Eileen
