I love the color coding, makes it easy to see at a glance. What's the plan as terms of service change over time? Some greens might become redundant.

#32Some of these are a bit too terse. e.g. 500px says "Ownership". What does that mean? And why is it less worrying than twitpic's "Takes credit for your content"? (And how does that make sense? Twitpic puts the username of the uploader on each page, no?)

#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
If you click on "Read the Details", you will see a bit of text under each point. Ownership: The copyright license you grant to 500px is transferable and sublicensable. The copyright license is limited for use “in connection with the Services” which includes promotional uses and redistribution “to other parties, web-sites, applications, and other entities” if you are credited properly. The license on your content term…
Oh, I just assumed "Read the Details" would send me to the ToS! Maybe that should be renamed too :)

#35Great concept and smart execution. A suggestion - rather than rating "A" through "E" why not change to the more recognizable (for US audience at least) scale of "A through F" (A/B/C/D/F) which we're all mercilessly trained to recognize through years of school grades? "E" as your worst rating confused me at first glance - could be interpreted as "Excellent"

Yeah "Ownership" is meant as a category rather than a title. I guess I forgot to give this one a proper title. Will fix this soon.

#37An API and chrome addon would be very nice. I wouldn't check the site, but I would like warnings when I accessed the registration page of a bad website.
I noticed that it's under the AGPL. That might be an issue for developing a Chrome plugin.
