#	Test	Score	Summary
1	Login, Signup and Other Forms Accessible		There are no labels for forms within this product - this may create problems with some screenreaders.
2	Image ALT Attributes		Alternative text is offered for all critical images on the site - screenreader users will be able to understand the content as clearly as others.
3	Link Target Definitions		All links, including images which would otherwise be ambiguous, have titles to uniquely identify them.
4	Frame Titles and Layout		No frames or iframes, which can be disorientating for screen-readers, are used in the design.
5	Removal of Stylesheet		The page is still understandable and functional when it is viewed as a linear document, with no styles.
