Topic: Piggyback Website Beta (Page 1 of 1)

Well I'm sending it to my friends... I got MOST of the nasty bugs out. Please, sit and have fun with this site. No it doesn't check your email, you can post bogus content there.

Purpose: People with website hosting that want to share it and get recognition (that part's still in development) can do so. Also, people looking for free web hosting for their (insert popular character) shrines and Midi Archives without URL's that include "geocities" can do so. Like the late "pick-me.net".

Still working on the graphics end, and getting user input magic quoted. Please don't destroy my databases.

Comments appreciated!

From a usability standpoint, your "Register" button shouldn't be a button underneath a form that requires submission, next to "Login." This implies that you should put in your desired username & password combination and then hit "Register" and that should be it. Of course that's not the case. Therefore, I recommend a text link underneath "Login" that says something like "Don't have an account? Register here!" or something like that. It's what users are used to.

Beyond that, there's not a whole lot to comment on, except you may want to, upon user creation, go ahead and do a redirect & log in for them. Just a nice thing to do.
