I’m currently being signed in with Google, which shows my whole name. How can I re-register with a different screen name?

Try logging out and then come back and create a new ID. Unless it stops you because of the email address. IF it does that, set up a a bogus email account

Thanks, Fuzz! It’s good to see you’re still here, too. (This is my first visit since the new message boards began).

this is a test of changing my user name. I don’t think that’s going to work fuzz…I did it and this is all it does

Well darn. When I first got here the same thing happened to me. There was my full name.

I managed to get in there and change it, but I can’t seem to actually do it again.

Good luck Linda, I hope you solve it.
