And Charles makes a fatal misstep! Dude, this is why you don't mention
these things; you have now volunteered to illustrate WAI documents.

<grin type="smug"/>. Actually Jan has probably done even more than me to
include illustration there. (I made the icons that appear everywhere in that,
but he has made a larger number of images I think.)

In all seriousness, I don't mean to underestimate any artists among
us, but I just note that they are likely being underutilized, just by
virtue of the fact that most key WAI documents contain approximately
zero helpful illustrations at present. If we have people with those
specific skills, we aren't using them right now!

PS: We need pictures of people with disabilities on the main WAI
home page.
