Love the site, very nice and professionally put together.
Just wanted to provide a couple of bits of feedback on thing's I've experienced so far. During the signup process it would be very helpful to have a dropdown list or auto complete for the "State" field. I was getting frustrated when it wouldn't accept the county I was trying and I couldn't see what were possible valid choices. Was I spelling it wrong, did the database spell it wrong, did it not contain UK counties, etc... I got it to accept one eventually but when I was getting my friend to sign up he had to ask me what I'd put in the field as he had exactly the same issue.[/list]
Is it necessary to have street as a required field when entering your location? While I'm more than happy to list which city/town I live in on the site I wasn't quite as pleased to have to also give my street. I gave my details anyway but I could easily see this turning some people off supplying their location to be shown on the map (and the UK needs all the people it can entering their locations! there's only 5 or 6 of us listed on there so far).[/list]
The last one's a really minor point. It'd be nice of the member map focused on the county of the user? It's a little annoying having to drag it over from America every time I want to check if there's any more nutters like me in my area.[/list]
Also, a huge thanks for providing this awesome free resource for us all!
