Meh, only Facebook login. I never use facebook and I hate logging in with it, so its a no-go for me until they add more OAuth services, or their own login system.<p>You would think its hard to add more than 1 OAuth, but its not, I absolutely hate how everyone only does facebook. Add a few others. I personally would prefer to use Twitter, others might prefer Google or Live.<p>Its not hard to add them people.

I regret adding to the pile of negativity, but here's some suggests on how to improve it:<p>1. Either scale the page so that it doesn't take up enough space for a scroll bar to appear, or make it so that the photo gallery does not override scrolling. As it currently is, it is a troublesome user experience because I want to scroll down to see the rest of the page but sometimes my action causes the photo gallery to change.<p>2. Use different music for the video, as at least for me it is currently synonymous with Treehouse, so it doesn't make your brand as distinct.<p>3. Make the padding and margins on elements more consistent(the welcome page has no margin on the top, but lots on the bottom ), and add more in places(such as the index page).<p>4. Make a place for the footer. As it is, it appears half hazardously placed and not thought about or deliberate. I would suggest centering (in relation to the entire page) below the rest of the content.<p>5. A few fixes on the page you get sent to just after logging in and selecting an FB album: #loading should be position:fixed, not position:absolute; The loading gif should have a transparent background. Getting one that looks good can be hard but it's worth the effort. It's probably an error with my specific account, but the loading screen is all I see when I go to the app after logging in and selecting the album "Profile Pictures" on my Facebook, which is composed of 4 images. It never gets past the loading page, even after refersh.<p>6. Re-do the video. It looks more like a family vacation slideshow rather than a presentation for a website. It should have little to no photo effects, and display images in the context of your website. A good chunk of the video is just pictures with animation or effects.

Along with the obvious question, how this is different from pinterest, I have one constructive comment, please don't use images for fonts, use a web-font, it will look better, load faster and will be a little bit more up to date generally.<p>Also the video loads slowly and gets stuck, and has no narration, and doesn't really show what the product does.

The video format isn't supported. There is nothing on how to fix this. If I need a plugin to watch the instructional video to use the site I would make that plugin very easy to access. Just a though. Maybe it's just me though.
