Hello all, I'm new here, love chatting (though of course that wasn't my reason for coming to the site in the first place!) however I was pleased to find it had a community.

Can someone please tell me how to change my name for a 'screen name'?

Hi Lisa, if you look at the top right, there is a link called my account.
Click on that.
Then re-enter your password.
On the next screen you will see community settings, click on that and you can enter a board name.

Good luck
Keith


EDIT
PP I had not seen that myself, always go in the other way lol.

Hmmm, it hasn't!
