Spell "log in" / "sign up" correctly as verbs

I realize that "login" and "signup" are pretty common misspellings of those verbs (especially among technical people), but the fact remains that they are still MISspellings (unless you're actually using the word as a noun or adjective).

I see that you did use the correct spelling in a few places, like https://uservoice.com/account/new ("Once your account is set up..."). Now to track down the few remaining places that need correcting... :)
