During our Beta period, it's true that there are two areas within FiveSprockets that require different accounts to access.   The first is "FiveSprockets proper" and this is the account that you register for right off of FiveSprockets home page.   This is your master FiveSprockets account that gives you access to your profile, contacts, vScripter, vProductionOffice, and the job-posting module.

In a separate area is what we call "FiveSprockets public, educational content" (Guides, Glossary, Forums, etc.)   This is managed by a content-management system called Drupal, and out of the box, Drupal maintains its own account system.  

We understand that this may be confusing, so we plan to link these two areas in the near future (likely before the end of 2008), so that you will just need to have one FiveSprockets account and that account will give you access to both areas.
