Just curious, but what do you need gender information in registration for?

You don't :). It's a clone script that I've modified. I've tried to hide the sign up stuff. Where did you manage to find it?
There was a "Sign up for more" link hidden behind any + button next to any idea. I clicked it, and a registration form popped up, which asked me (among other things) for gender.

BTW. still didn't get a confirmation link :). Also, can't see any indication that I'm logged in, but the "Sign up for more" link got replaced by "Add to favourites". Did I break something? :D. I guess you're working on this site as we speak.

Thanks for that one. I've no got rid of that link and replaced that space with the comments.
Not the OP, but gender is great info for targeting advertising
It's part of the base script that I've modified. I'm keen to keep advertising off the site.
