Number of invite codes on "invite someone" page

Title:
Number of invite codes on "invite someone" page

Area:
invite codes

Summary:
The "invite someone" page only shows up to five invite codes. The page should somehow indicate that you might have more codes than are shown, to prevent confusion.

Description:
The "invite someone" page (linked on standard site scheme pages, so the easiest way to access your invites) only lists up to five invite codes. Nowhere on that page does it mention that you might have more than five unused codes, so I've been convinced for awhile that I only have five (despite the recent distributions.) There is a link to your complete list of invite codes, but it's not clear that it might show more unused codes.

There needs to be (at least) a change to site copy stating that the page only shows the first five. Ideal would be for the "invite someone" page to say "you have * unused codes, go to complete list to see them all," or something like that.

Really amazingly awesome would be for the "invite someone" link on site pages to have the number of unused codes, like the inbox link lists unread messages. That would certainly help inspire me to get moving on handing them out!

I also think the number of unused codes should be in parentheses after Invite Someone in the header!
