Example - User create invite page

                Was...
                --------------------------
                Invite tokens 0
                Proxy
                User Class
                Count (max 0)

                ---------------------------

                Should be:

                Maximum number of invitations available: #

                Number of invitations you wish to send: #

                For a standard user, can we drop the proxy and user class drop downs? We either display the proxy address only, or nothing. Personally, I'd say display nothing.

Some more suggested changes:

                * Add "(optional)" to email address prompt in create account and profile screens
                * Add "Psiphon -" prefix to <title> text (e.g., w.php title is just "Welcome" which isn't very helpful in a tabbed browser)

Replying to [comment:3]:

                The email prompt should probably say even more inline. For example:

                Email: [ ] (this field is optional; leave it blank if you don't want Psiphon to learn your email address; but provide an email if you want to be informed of new ways to connect to Psiphon if your existing blah is blocked; we recommend you create a Yahoo email or GMail for this purpose blah blah)

Suggested text:

                Add (Optional)* beside "Email" (e.g. Email (Optional)* )

                * You do not need to provide an email address to create a Psiphon account. By providing an email address, however, psiphon can inform you of new ways to connect if necessary. We recommend you create a GMail (www.gmail.com) or Yahoo (mail.yahoo.com) email account for this purpose, since it is web-based and simple to use.

On version 2.3, change the "Wrong login/password" on the login screen to "Wrong username or password" to keep it consistent with the field names.
