I think it looks quite good, nice work done there

There are some common problems happening over here.

1- There are alot of people thinking that they can use any username or password and log into the admin cp,
please pls dont try to login using usernames and passwords of your imagination, you can't login
i have like tens cases today people are trying to login using some like

User Names: blaat, admin, test, 1=1 etc....
Passwords: jhony, admin, test, 1=1 etc....

2- Some are thinking that the form where it says Username and Password is the place to sign up, whereas the system is so clear.

[list=a]
[*]The left menu is so clear, and it is like a chain or steps.
[*]The place to get a username and a password is called Request Access whereas the place where to login is called Enter Admin CP and it is so abvious the difference between them.
[*]The home page explain crealry the steps you should pass over so you can access the admin cp.
[*]The only way to have a username and password and to access the admin cp, is to provide your email in Request Access that you will get on a random generated username and password.



I hope this time all things are clear.

meh it would be better if you could actually see the effects that changes have on a forum

And anyone who wants to sign up without giving their email away you could use http://www.mailinator.com

..why not just give everyone full access, and restore changes when they log out?

Well i'm not doing a service that through it you see what will happen, and how they will look, i show how to do it, because we all know if we right this code, we will have this output, u know what i mean. We are not doing anything more than introducing the Admin CP to the visitor who are anxious about MyBB.

And we all know that for many peopel the Admin CP matters more than the rest, and a good (Easy, flexible, Effective and efficient) Admin CP will influence that visitor and instead of waitting to have some free time to install the whole software just to check how its admin cp looks.

Moreover the experience of the actually board and forum can be seen wheter on our board, on the mybb community it self.

We are not stealing people's mail, there is a automatic procedure that i run, that cleans and revert the whole major parts of the database each 24 hours

Who is really intersted in knowing MyBB and not comming to abuse the service will give 1 minute of his time requesting access.

But what good is an interactive demo of the Admin CP if the users interaction has no visable affect. It wont benifit them in anyway. You may aswell just have a page with screenshots

But you have nothing that states what happens with the email address on your site. As far as anyone can see you could be selling addresses to spammers, you need to add something to your terms of use

The idea is an Admin CP Demo, "come and check how mybb admin cp looks", and not to see how the things you edit, affect the board. it is the same for the other services, have an example http://www.vbulletin.com

i'll take in consideration and state that in the terms of use, even though i have stated before that there is such a system, but i know that they are limited who will know about it as long as it is not a part of the site itself.
