[SteemCreate] Improved Account Name Validation
Issue
Username form was not properly validating that usernames did not contain special characters that are not allowed.
Solution
Improved the username validation to check for special characters that are not permitted for Steem accounts.
Summary
By improving the SteemCreate username validation to prevent users from entering invalid usernames, there will be less unexpected issues during account creation. When a user types their username in the field, the name will be checked for proper format as well as availability in the network. Only if both checks pass will the Checkout button appear.

@netuoso I sent this email to support @ SteemCreate on January 4th after making 2 attempts to open an account for $45. Both attempts failed and I never received a reply. I see the funds were returned to my account a few days later.
Is it safe or appropriate to suggest this method of opening accounts to my friends in the future or are they likely to get the same results?
