Hi Johannes,<br>
<br>
I'm swamped this week, but if I get time in the next few days I'll do
something and post to the list.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>

not managing to produce anything that looks reasonable. For example, I
don't where to put the "Please log in" label (or equivalent) without
substantially increasing the size of the whole box.
<br>
<br>
Do you have an example you could point us to, or could you mock one up?

Optionally, you could move common elements out of the tabbed area
(Login
<br>
button, help link, whatever). You could even put the OpenID logo on the
<br>
relevant tab.
<br>
<br>
I think it would look rather tidy.
<br>
<br>
And if, [your choice of deity] forbid, another login choice was needed,
<br>
tabs are easily extensible - just add another one.

Cheers,

Looks good - we're getting there quick...
<br>
<br>
And don't forget your alt and title messages (for hover information).
<br>
<br>
<br>
Also...
<br>
<br>
Not a part of the visual interface as such - but it seems nice to
<br>
have a
<br>
cookie, if the user allows it, that remembers whether they logged in
<br>
with an OpenID the last time they visited.
<br>
<br>
If they logged in with OpenID most recently, then the OpenID login
<br>
should be the default prompt - not the user/pass. It saves a click
<br>
and
<br>
reinforces the 'normalness' of seeing the OpenID single login box.
