Scred makes registration easier

Posted in Scred by setok on February 16, 2009

We fully understand that some people are impatient. So we put in some work and made registration to Scred easier than it has ever been before. Now there are only three fields to fill in! Even the currency field has been pre-selected with the currency you will most likely want, based on the country you are visiting from. If you’re not happy with what it chose, simply select the currency you’re happiest with (it can also be changed in your profile). Now your friends will have no excuse for not signing up.

Additionally we made some other small fixes here and there, including growing the size of the MiniCorp shop item description, to make addition and editing easier.

Edited to add that our release is called The Begotten.

Pop over to Scred to take a look.

Finally, take a glance at one of our mascots, the Scredidog!

    Good improvement – made me to signup ;-) I actually could use Scred to manage depts and payments of our communal van.

    A couple of improvements to the initial experience:
    - the default currency for a new pool is not based on the location (or creators default currency) but it defaulted to AED for me.
    - is a member nick really needed or could email be enough?
    - some work with copy texts and layouts could make it more obvious what to do after a registration

    Teemu, if you have a communal van then Scred is the tool for you :-) You may or may not want to use a MiniCorp for that. I’ll dig up an email for you and send you a beta code for that.

    I agree on all those improvements. The pool default currency used to default to the correct one, but that got lost in the new user interface. Will see that that’s corrected.

    We were considering dropping the member nick, as well, but kept it in for the moment as it makes displaying members (especially on mobile devices) a bit better. However, I agree that it isn’t strictly necessary.

    I also agree that the first experience upon registration isn’t as good as it should be.
