Accessibility Wishlist

• Have a question/option at signup which can funnel people into an area that asks about accessibility needs and shows them what's available for different accessibility needs.

• For extra shininess, if somebody uses the audio version of the captcha select this option automatically. (with invite codes, we've removed the captcha)

• Clear and accessible instructions on signup page on what to do if you can't complete the captcha for journal creation. (with invite codes, we've removed the captcha)

• On all styles, have alt text for all images.

• Make sure all forms on the site follow these accessibility guidelines for screenreaders. These guidelines also provide layout advice for high usability.

• Put together documentation and make it publicly accessible and broadly disseminated from all the usual documentation places:
  • for dreamwidth users
    • accessibility features in dreamwidth
    • keeping your layout accessible when you customize it
    • how to write userpic descriptions
    • links for end-users to ask for more help or make suggestions
  • for dreamwidth developers, designers, and documentation producers
    • Style creators: creating an accessible style
    • Developers, style creators, designers: principles of universal design
    • Developers: resources for creating accessible HTML and AJAX
    • Site copy, FAQ, documentation, and support people: avoiding language that assumes able-bodied users
