Real Estate Forums

Laid Back Chat We are all friends here and sometimes we just want to chat. It doesn't have to be real estate web development all the time, some times we have a new baby in the family, sometimes we have a beef or boquet. Sit back and relax here.

I haven't ever really wanted to create a "user name" here other than my given name, as it seems better for networking.

Is there a way to change mine? I would like it to be RyanWard.

I was new to the web when I made it up. See here:

SEO Tunnel vision

I have grown up a little since then, but, can't seem to find a way to change it in User CP.

Ryan, only admins can change user names, might I suggest using a space ala Ryan Ward ? Looks cleaner

I have no idea how I came up with mine. Maybe I was being a schmuck!

O.K. Can you change it? I didn't think I could do Ryan Ward (with space). That would be best.

When you walk, it is your big toe that keeps you from falling on your face. Sometimes it's the little things in life that mean the most and it's the little things that most often get overlooked.

So, bigtoe reminds me to take things one step at a time and be thankful for all the little things in life.
