Too much text. I have no idea what the site does.

You need a nice big verbal call to action button: -"Create an XXXXX" -"Make a YYYYY now" -etc.

The things people can do on your site are "Register" and "Sign In." Those aren't things people want to do, those are ends to a mean. Give us an enticing link to click, because right now the 3 in your header are extremely large barriers.

i agree, and thats something that i'll be getting in there soon. my "weekend project" dragged out into wednesday, and the visible site is only one step up from bare-bones text. i probably should've held it until next weekend and polished it a bit more. hindsight, 20/20, etc.
