I think your feedback on the pricing page is great, and we'll definitely be making some quick changes to the design later today.
Regarding the Signup screens, I personally appreciate when websites use OpenID or OAuth so that I can use an existing account instead of creating a new username / password. That is why we chose to use Github and Google, and we hope to support more providers in the future (such as Bitbucket). I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.
Offering those options is great and all, but let me create an account with just an email too.
Also, if I'm on the signup page and click the Drone.io logo, it just adds a # to the URL and doesn't go back to the home page.
* The layout of the pricing page is odd. Use the plan name as a column instead of a row. Most folks are used to seeing it that way - https://drone.io/pricing
* Do not start by showing the user a free plan. Users scan a page from left to right. Don't give them something they will easily choose right away.
* Get yourself a 'features' page that highlights what you offer in bullet points.
