Sharing below with intent to be helpful. I realize site has just launched and y'all might still be working through bugs and making adjustments.

1) Upon registering, did not receive confirmation email. 1-2 days later, received reminder email to complete registration.

2) When using the finish sign-up link provided in the reminder email, uploading profile pic did not seem to work. A file upload dialogue box would open, file selected, file name was displayed on web page, but saving the page resulted in a red box around the file upload button. Flow left it unclear if the password initialization has been completed.

3) Style: The blue hex repeating background renders poorly. It's not a tileable so looks geocities-ish.

Thank you for the notifications of the bugs.

The bug you found in the initial signup process is an important one, and we will investigate it. The first email may have been trapped in a SPAM filter, hence, we issue reminders after two days. We will test the initial signup process again to improve it.

The profile picture upload may have been of the wrong size or dimensions, but that was not clearly stated from our side, so we will fix this.

With regards to the hex-tiles, we will get better graphics too.

Once again thanks, we appreciate the honest feedback, so we can improve.

1) Oh jeez, you're absolutely right. There were two emails in my spam folder. I'm embarrassed for not checking, but it's been a really long time since that's happened with other registrations. Maybe the domain needs more time to earn reputation scoring, or something like that. Regardless, I'm in now!

2) I've grown accustomed to uploading any size/dimension pic, but if the source pic doesn't fit the preferred size/proportions, a cropping interface would pop-up to allow user to crop the desired portion of the pic. Then auto-downsized to save space of course.

3) The new darker hex background is much better. The remaining white/grey graph paper areas, well, pretty distracting/busy/unnecessary to me. But hey, that's style stuff which will never be able to please everybody. :-)

Thanks for the site!!

Thank you for reporting the bugs. It is nice when visitors provide constructive feedback so we can improve.

With regards to the auto-resizer for images, that will require a bit more work, so something for the future.
