This web site has several animations on the begining pages, and to accomodate those people who may not have the shockwave plugin, the animations are also provided in java, animated GIFs, and Quicktime. These options are accessible by clicking on the small icons above where the animations are located. The smiley face is for the animated GIFS, the question mark is for automatic detection in case you are not familar with what technology your browser can handle, the java logo is for java, the red-yellow swirl is for shockwave, and the blue Q is for quicktime. Notice that to see Quicktime you will need Quicktime 3 available from Apple Computer. All you need to do to get the quicktime animation to appear is to move the mouse over the blue Q. To get the Shockwave Plugin go to Macromedia's homesite. There is one partially finished solar house that was not completed at this site. If you would like to see it, make sure you have Silicon Graphics' Cosmo Player.
