I found your site in a search to identify a bird I'm about to paint (I'm an Oil Painter.)
On inspection, I learned I needed to "Join"-- no problem, or so I thought.
After many, many attempts to join, I continued getting the message that my email address was already in use... or that my username was already selected.
After using BOTH email addresses and receiving the little red message on your form that tells me it is already in use...
And, after using several forms of the username I tried to use, I gave up and tried to "Contact" you.
THEN-- I had a very difficult time contacting you... my letter never appeared to get through.
I eventually gave up (after approx. 10 tries to JOIN and 4-5 "contact" attempts) and decided to check my email and get back into the studio. Then, lo and behold... I found out that I did indeed JOIN and I joined under each username... several times.
Something is out of whack with your joining form because with every attempt it told me that something is wrong. You need to check this out because I am a kind, patient person and was VERY frustrated.
Does it have anything to do with the fact that I am on a Macintosh? Using Safari?
I am an oil painter and I LOVE to paint birds... http://www.camille-engel.com
