To my mind, that's a mistake. I like the way Second Life does it. If you have an account, the main page takes you either to your personal Dashboard, or asks you to log in. But if you don't it gives you a page where you can learn what Second Life is all about, and create a new account. That's easy enough to do .. if the browser has a PHP session cookie, showing they have an account, redirect to their Dashboard; otherwise serve up the default page.
This would be nice, and seems like they already have the ability already in place, as they have the forums/support/cattery tied to one login.
And to your credit, I thought what you did was a nice start, I just think the whole site should be completely redone to something more stylized. After all, the website itself is a product, you want to showcase what you're providing. You can make the argument for clean/lean and that is fine, but what we have no is just bulky and 'dated'. ->> FACE LIFT!<<-
I feel the people who do all the hard work coding, designing, and everything, should be represented well by their website. I'm not saying OMG WHY ARE THERE NO CUTE FLOWERS AND BUNNIES AND KTTIES RUNNING ACROSS THE SCREEN JUMPING AND SAYING 'HI!' However, I do feel it should be a bit more styled to KittycatS.
