Hrm. Won't let me log in.

At least, I think that's what the "Something smells rotten" error is supposed to mean.

I just registered for Delicious to try this out, as apparently my old account didn't survive the acquisition, so I know my username and password are valid.

Thoughts?

That is indeed the "auth failed" error. Only two things I can think of: either you toggled the service slider to "Pinboard" without noticing, or Delicious authentication was down briefly. There was at least one other report of that:

Are you still getting that error?

I am. I've verified username, password, and have tried both the Pinboard and Delicious options, and now I'm getting the "Oof! Delicious rejected that username/password" error.

Logged out of delicious, logged back in to verify the credentials. Restarted the browser and tried again -- same error.

On the upside, it's easily one of the best login screens I've seen, and the error animation is quite nice. :-)
