Naked Password is an open-source jQuery plugin with the tagline "Make your site sexy!" It purports to encourage users (who, presumably, the developers assume are heterosexual men or lesbian women) to enter stronger Web site passwords by displaying cartoon images of a woman wearing progressively less clothing: "Our beautiful model Sally tastefully removes items of clothing as the password grows stronger."

The images are small cartoon-style icons; the final image shows a completely naked eight-bit woman.
