ok i thought it was time for a change BUT I have gone into My profile up top and clicked Edt profile - changed the name - clicked up date and nothing happens - it doesn't change... so what am I doing wrong?
I have checked that the name I want isn't being used already... still no luck. ------------- Ann

LOL Mel. I too have had that problem a couple times where the forum handle just doesn't change over despite entering a new one a million times. I think MelanieandBree was having this prob too.
Only thing that helped me was perseverance. Must have caught the server on a good day?
Wouldn't hurt to ask Emma maybe?? ------------- Single Mum to a darling wee boy of 3 years :) |

Are you changing it in the "My Profile" option in the pink section above (as opposed to the "Profile" option next to Private Messenger.
That's how I changed mine, but it was ages ago. |

Ann I have heard that some people haven't been able to change their names while others can... maybe yours is just having a bad hair day I've never tried changing mine cause I love my name and am scared I won't be able to change it back!! -------------  |
