As far as I know, the main page has never been secure – at least not as long
as I've been a member. Given that this is where most people log in, this
is a huge problem. Their credentials are being sent over an unsecured connection.
Given that this site has had hacking issues in the past, one would think that
this would have been addressed by now. I'm disappointed to see in the new
design that this issue has not been addressed.

Not only is this bad for Bricklink's current users, but it makes the site
look amateurish to potential members, which in turn keeps them from being customers.

Please address this as soon as possible. Security shouldn't be seen as an
optional feature. It should be seen as mandatory for every site.
