How can I arrange to have my user name changed? I PM'ed Michael twice with a request but never got a response.

If one of the moderators reading this can make the change, please change my user name to Graham Mitchell

Thanks.

Done!

Incidentally, we now ask new registrants to use real names - I would encourage others already registered to do the same as Graham.

I'd like to change mine to Shirley Bracken.  I couldn't see where to do it myself.  Can you do mine too?  Thanks.

Always happy to oblige, but like the two posters above, I couldn't find a way to do this myself;  is there a way?

If not, then please change ThomasM to Tom Montgomery.  Thanks!

How about changing ChrisSand to Chris Sanderson and Michael to Michael Reichman?   

Then, if you really don't have enough work getting LLVJ 20 out (plus a few more tutorials), feel free to change EricM to Eric Myrvaagnes (but who wants to have to type all that).

I could not add that avatar either.  Will you see if you can do it please... thanks!  I'm so glad to be rid of Bumperjack!

I was actually referring to the fact that I registered under my real name back in 2003, no user name change required...

So relieving to "come into the light" (i.e., out of the shadows of semi-anonimity). I will appreciate if  you change mine to: Slobodan Blagojevic (no, not related, if you have to ask )

According to the front page, there are currently 34,200 members. If everyone* piles on here this is going to be one very long thread!  
 
 
(* Minus, of course, the number of forward-thinking users who are already using their real names, like Jonathan...)

Handles used to be the norm when CBs were "in".  I had one back in the 70's.  So it was kind of fun to carry it over.  Now that era is over and we need to know who we are talking to.  

Seems like we should be able to change our names by ourselves.  Is that possible?  I prefer to do my own work!

Jonathan, you're a special boy!

I'm Shirley, formerly called Bumperjack.  Maybe we should ID ourselves that way for a while.  I was just getting to know some of you but I'm sure your personalities will shine through.

I had just been thinking that some of the 'handles' have a great deal of charm and/or mystery to them, and I will sorely miss them. Some of my favorites that come to mind immediately include Dark Penguin, MadManChan (who is anything but mad IMHO), Wolfnowl, Nniko, and Kikashi. On the other hand, "EricM" was pretty boring, so I'm happy to have 'come out.'


Now maybe Jonathan will change his to "JonW357." just to spite us.

No worries... under member's profile/options, there is an option "Member's Display Name History"
