Not so fast Chaddy.

You still have a lot of explaining to do, specially if your
unsupported claim of "legal blindness" has landed you any paid job.

If you have lied about your condition, you have committed FRAUD.
1-
a: deceit, trickery; specifically : intentional perversion of truth in
order to induce another to part with something of value or to
surrender a legal right
b: an act of deceiving or misrepresenting : trick
2-
a: a person who is not what he or she pretends to be : impostor;
also : one who defrauds : cheat
b: one that is not what it seems or is represented to be.

And FRAUD, dear Shabby666, is a CRIME.
And the penalties you are facing for committing such a despicable
CRIME range from $100,000.00 to imprisonment for up to three years, or
both.
Maybe in Australia are even harder.

We are all expectant now.
It shouldn't be that hard to present some proof of your alleged
blindness.
If you don't present any, we'll have to assume that you have been
lying and cheating on people during all this time, just like you lie
and cheat on real blind people when you claim to "specialise in making
websites that are accessible to the widest range of people possible":
http://freewebdesign.awardspace.biz/index.php
but then go on to say that "you will need the Flash Player to *view*
the below content":
http://freewebdesign.awardspace.biz/portfolio.php

So you're basically asking for compassion, while at the same time
denying accessibility to the people you claim to be helping.
Perhaps because you know that you can't get any money out of those
people?
