I would just leave it as "if you don't want to install the Shockwave plugin, you will be able to report where you found ..." It doesn't really matter why people don't use it. I'd also put the how to do it by text first, and then offer a fancy version, but I think that's just personal preference.

Here is the statement, "If the coin above is bouncing, you're ready to view all the graphical maps and other visual aides in this section. Enter the 50 State Quarters Program! If the coin isn't moving, you may download the free Shockwave Flash plug-in. If you do not want to install the Shockwave plug-in or are seeing-impaired, you can still enjoy the site, but will not be able to view graphical maps and other visual aides. You are still able to report where you found a state quarter and view geographic information in text format." Is see-impaired politically correct? and is this stated well? Thoughts? Sorry for the global email but trying to get as many opinions as possible. rob neff --Charles McCathieNevile mailto:charles@w3.org phone: +1 617 258 0992 http://www.w3.org/People/Charles W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI MIT/LCS - 545 Technology sq., Cambridge MA, 02139, USA
