2 Suggestions for site improvements.

Options
Hi,
just to list 2 minor suggestions for improving the site.

The first is the login screen - when you input incorrect details there is no link to try again - just a "forgot your password page?" . It would be helpful if there was a link to try again or it went back to the original screen with just an error at the top.

And the second - the who is online list on the main forum page - its enormous. I'm sure MSE are proud of how many users the have on here - but it should be collapsed by default as it it slows down loading the site.

Thanks.

    If you make a mistake when logging in the log in boxes stay exactly where they were so don't need a link or try again button.
    I just logged in and purposely made a mistake and got a MSE Forum Message to say I had made a mistake, above that box is the green line with the Main site, Forum, Register etc etc buttons and above the green line are the two boxes where you put in your User name and password.


    As 456789 said you can collapse the who is online list yourself and it stays collapsed.
    If you look at the list, to the far right there is a little blue box with white arrows in it. Click that and it collapses down the list.
