Need a login toolbar GUI

Post by alex.barylski »

I seen a web ste a while back with a interesting login toolbar atthe top of the page...

Nice design and you used it to login, etc...

As the elements (TEXT & PASSWORD) were inlined...there were no labels explaining which each field was, but the email had "Your email" inside it...

I can't find that site again :?

Does anyone know of a web site which has a aesthetically pleasing login toolbar which I could maybe get ideas from???

I can't seem to picture what you've described.

LOL

Is it that late at night?

Much like that toolbar that hotscripts.com has with the three drop down comboboxes, I want something similiar where people can login with inlined email/pass details, but hopefully avoid labels, such as (email/password, etc)...

No matter how hard I try I can't make anything look aesthetically appealing and was hoping someone knew of a site which did this and it looked good enough I could copy the design and be happy :)

I'm confused as well, are you talking about something like this?

Hi Hockey,

If you think THAT is somewhat ugly, cant wait to see your example of a pretty one :D:D:D

In all seriousness though, would love to see what you make

When I say ugly, it's completely subjective...art is funny that way... :)

What I really meant, was that design wouldn't mesh with my web sites over all design, in which case, it would be "ugly" for it's own layout design, it works well

Secondly, it's a personal project as of now, but hopefully, eventually becomes something serious...hosted locally, so I can't show anyone, as I'm not about to go turning my desktop into a server :P

Cheers :)
