7. Spoken summary on introductory page. (Easy.)

8. Smaller graphic on intro page so can see more of whole page at once. (Easy. Crop the bottom of the picture?)

9. Short demo on write or intro page. (Medium time. This would be the enhanced version of an auditory-only summary and may replace it or be a movie user can click on.)

14. (Revisit this when you get here.) When tab on intro page, focus goes to button but it might not be showing. If button stays low, need to scroll there. Move higher and won't need to - usually.
