If you are logged into your forum or "website" name, then you don't have to sign up again. That's the best way to go about it; have one, single log-in for the site that works for the website and the forum. Looking at the name you are commenting under, it looks like that is not the case. We'd suggest you try that ... if it still asks you to sign up, then we'll dig into the issue.
That was a dolphin that was not likely affected by the explosion. Consider that dolphin have a single dorsal fin that breaks the water's surface. Sharks have both dorsal and caudal fins that point upward and are likely to break the surface. Plus, consider that sharks are more likely to cruise at the surface for longer periods, while dolphins tend to come up and go down quickly for air. These are somewhat generalizations, but they hold true in this case.
