Sign-in Less Noticeable?

[J3RN]

I was thinking - so only one person is going to be using the sign-in link, but it's pretty prominent on the page. I was thinking that maybe we could make it a little more discreet. Maybe like 🚪 in the top-right instead of text saying "Sign In" or something like that.

Or, even better, if we could place it discreetly in the nav bar, like after the social media icons or something, that would be even better.

Thoughts?

I'm for this 100%. I personally like the idea of a small semi-transparent icon in the top-right corner of the header space that becomes opaque when you hover over it. Very discreet, and but is obvious enough if you are looking for it.

Edit: The nav bar is actually a better idea. That way you have an access point from anywhere on the site.
