My solution to this problem has been to use my own wp-signup.php page within my sign-up theme. Here’s how it’s done:

I finished the first WPMU modification for NextGEN Gallery based on the changes from Rowan Crane. I’m tested this here locally and it works so far. If somebody is interested to test this in live you can checkout the current version at my GoogleCode project .

Here are some fantastic widgets that you will love and find instantly useful! Who doesn’t love the ease of install, drag and drop? It can be quite a hunt to find widgets that are WPMU-compatible when you’re looking to add a little bit of functionality without having to try four or five plugins that do basically the same thing. All of the plugins listed below are WPMU-compatible and will save you loads of time in customizing your blogs. Some are widgets that are routinely requested in WPMU help forums and others you many not have heard of yet, but all have been selected because they contain configurable widgets that can be added to widgetized areas of your themes.
