Hey - the site looks like it is coming along well, v.sexy drop down cocktail 
recipes from the "I can make list" - it is on my favourites as of now and I 
will be sure to drop in from time to time.

Re: Submitting your own drinks.

This is a really important feature, it is one that I have been hoping would 
appear on the Webtender for some time (although I have only recently started 
posting on the forum, I have been a regular visitor for a few years now).

I have checked out your system and it is not clear whether you are intending 
to creit the person/bar/club who is submitting. Obviously the issue of who can 
take credit for a cocktail recipe is/can be a very contraversial issue among 
aficianados (and probably even more so among professionals) - and it would 
bring into focus the need for first rate moderation/filtering - but I think it 
is still an issue which you need to address, even if it is to put forward your 
argument for not crediting the submissions on the Webtender Forum.

I guess part of the issue here is "membership" and whether you want your site 
to be a community, or an application. One step at a time seems the best way, 
it is functioning as a pretty good application right now, but maybe this is an 
issue for the future.

A few things that I found were missing from your ingredients list:

Malibu Pineapple Rum
Malibu Mango Rum
Orgeat Syrup
Licor 43
Grenadine (Alcoholic) Cordial
(Stones) Green Ginger Wine
Pimms No.1
Pimms Winter(No.3)
Rosso Vermouth

And you only have an entry for Chartreuse - this needs to be split into Green 
Chartreuse and Yellow Chartreuse, as they have different flavours and 
alcoholic content, as well as colour.

I dont know if you are going to put garnishes on the list - I notice you have 
an entry for an "olive" - if so then you need to put Cocktail Onions on there, 
can't have a Gibson Martini without Cocktail Onions! But then I notice you 
dont have a recipe for a Gibson Martini on there either.... ;)

Keep up the good work.
