I hope dumb people will stop going "LOL NO" now that it's less invasive.

For some reason I feel unsafe entering my login details anywhere but minecraft.net

I agree you, are putting your faith in an unknown developer. Different case with something like steams openID however.

I'd personally make my Calls to Action way more prominent, and you could probably simplify it right down so you don't need the sidebar.

Think Google's homepage, how it's just an input box and a button, with a few links at the bottom.

/e

You could probably just have a checkbox under the input, changing it from a single line to multiple line. That'd look rather awesome, IMO.

[iamacyborg]

Submit and Donate.

Also, change the submit button to read "Shorten". You've basically got a load of stuff there that's completely unnecessary.

With a bit of optimisation, you could do a lot better with the site.

/edit

And use this. [url]http://www.google.com/websiteoptimizer[/url]

Hunches are great, but data is better.

I've done [url=http://www.mcskinsearch.com/mclogin/]this[/url] too. Though I never went any further because people would not want to submit their Minecraft credentials to you(For all they know you could be storing plain text passwords :v:). Known Havok put it pretty simple and I agree with him.

[iamacyborg]

[QUOTE=TerabyteS_;32716704]What would you do to make donate more visible?[/QUOTE]

There are a few ways you could go about it:

1. More visible link.
2. Lightbox-esque popup after someone shortens a link.
3. Hellobar style dropdown notification.

Just test what works for your site, and then optimise it.

How much code is "stolen code"?

I mean... if you steal a line, or a few lines is it still bad?

What is ok to do and whats not?

[bbang]

[QUOTE=Known Havok;32714908]For some reason I feel unsafe entering my login details anywhere but minecraft.net[/QUOTE]

That's true, I wouldn't do that too...

But, I'll make it anyways.

Anyway if you're like me you'd rather try and make your own stuff before thinking about using code or resources made by another entity. It's way more pleasuring to make your own stuff and make it work.

Updated a website I work on to use one central page.json file for both JS and PHP. It works very nicely.

[url]http://tradecentrecannock.co.uk/home[/url]

You should see two AJAX requests. One for the pages.json and one for the current page. (BTW the website is very empty because it'll be gone sooner or later)

{
	"stocklist": "Stock List",
	"tradecars": "Trade Cars",
	"warranty": "Warranty",
	"finance": "Finance",
	"contactus": "Contact Us",
	"findus": "Find Us",
	"aboutus": "About Us"
}

Probably would have been pain without jQuery.

You should make a wireframe first because your current design looks a bit aimless. Then you know where stuff will go and you can design around it.

Here's one I made earlier:
