Ok I think I am ready for some beta testers.

It's not 100% complete (More like 50%), it will basically allow you to add locks, and rate them at this point as well as search. This is pretty much the core functionality, I will add in the bypass part, editing and updating of locks as well after I get some feedback on it (In addition to making it look better).

What I am looking for as far as feedback is do you think that the amount of information for ratings and lock information is suffecient, am I missing something? Are the descriptions for the rating levels decent and easy to understand? (To see the rating levels I am refering to you have to be able to submit a lock).

I want to confirm all this before I start working on the editing, and additional features as depending on the feedback I might have to redo a large amount of stuff (Hopefully not lol).

Anyway here is where you can find the lockbox: http://www.defcon-5.com/lockbox/

By default everyone can search and view lock information, if you want to submit a lock or rate a lock you will to register on the defcon-5 forum. Then just make a post in the LockBox section, and I'll add your user account to the LockBox group. (That's how I am handling the user accounts, it makes it alot easier to handle than having to write a user management system from scratch, plus it keeps alot of the people who might not know anything about locks from adding garbage to the database).

Thanks again for everyones help so far.
