What if I only have a first name? Why are the profile images so large for such a small little circle being displayed? (on the sign-up page)

As I fill out information why is there a circle next to my typed information? Is it portraying some information via color? If so, it's lost on me (and many other color blind people, presumably) I filled out the three text fields and clicked to sign up without gmail and it said "Issues with information below". But they all have information? What's the plus sign for? It seems to want me to upload a file. For what purpo…

+ sign is to choose a profile picture, which also changes the background of the landing page. The circles within the text fields are color confirmation states, turning green when the string you've entered is a complete name, email, etc.

Thanks for bringing to light the shortcomings of color confirmation; we should have text confirmation states instead.

Sorry about the confusion! I'd love to walk you through things if you're up for it. Just shoot me an email at mike [at] volleyit.co

What exactly is Volley? It's not very clear as to what the purpose is from this page alone, and I couldn't find any links to learn more. Why would I signup for something based on one line of text?

Yep. There is no way in hell I'm going to enter my personal information on a page for a service that offers no information about itself. This is new web service 101. Come on, guys.
