Definitely looks like a good start! A couple nitpicks though, on this screen:
Probably shouldn't be able to see the password. On this screen:
You should probably move the text down a little bit, so there's more spacing between the top of the screen and the text and it doesn't look so constricted.
And yeah, the fake loading screens are always a turnoff, no matter how short, so think about that. :)/>
EDIT: A crash on login if I enter in blank fields:

Doesn't have to be.. It is a preference, all it does is make things look nicer.

I know it's just way easier to read you could do the whole program on one line but that would be hellish to read xD
