The PIMA Web site provides a wide range of information in a user-friendly format. Users will also find search facilities, copyright notices, contact details and more. The new design and layout of this site is attractive and easy to use. However, users with slower machines should be aware that the new design incorporates animations, which drain system resources very quickly. That aside, this site has a lot to offer both experts and enthusiasts of imaging.
Membership is open to anyone with an interest in the group's work.
The site adopts a formal approach to technical issues, whilst providing a jargon-free reference point for newcomers to visual resources. Users will also find a comprehensive guide to copyright issues and lots of information and guidelines for anyone intending to set up a visual resource for educational purposes. The layout of this site is very linear, as the main subject pages are just one click away from the home page. As such, users can quickly find what they are looking for, whether it is information on the VRA site or links to external, visual resources.
