While it seems like there could be some issues with this in a (particularly conservative) workplace, I think the concept is great: give users some incentive to practice safe passwording.

Handling of special characters could use some improvement. For instance, "Hello" (no quotes) has her in her underwear, but with "/", she still has pants on. That said, this site is more about the presentation than the algorithmic implementation; I'm sure someone will fork her on GitHub and teach her to keep her clothes on longer.

It assumes all your users want to see naked ladies.

Personally I love it, however I will never ever be able to employ it on our company website.

However, the concept of incentivizing the password entry field has inspired me. Instead of something risqué like nudity, how about offering a coupon off your first order (works for a commerce or service based site). Ie, as they type, gradually increase a % from 1 to 5 (or higher, what ever you're willing to offer).

IE, a progression like:

  |asdf      | 
  |asdf12    | %1 off first order coupon
  |asdf12KL  | %2 off first order coupon
  |asdf12KL.!| %5 off first order coupon

Strength algorithm could use a bit of work, considering pixelbabe took her shirt off for the password “password”.

This is cute, but personally, I've never been a fan of password character requirements. Laissez-faire, and all that...the Internet has no business telling me how to secure my profiles!
