UserName changes

Hi !!!
Is it any way to change the User name ? I pick mine quite carelessly (for a start its on Capital letters !!! I aint' yelling ! ) , and a pointless name .

I know I can create a new user , but then Id lose my post-rating and .. would be quite difficult to people to realize Its me again (even that they would care !! .

Is it any way to -at least- convert my name to lower-case ? or even better to "Javier" or "JCarrion" or something like that ?

Cheers.
Javier.

Yes, the upgrade DID fix this, all sorted and I can easily change your user name for you.

stickfigure, your user name is now changed!

For anyone else reading this:

You can't change your username but I can. Just let me know what you want, and ensure I can see proof that it is YOU. In other words from your registered email address, or a PM from your HUBB account you want changed. I'll then change it as quickly as possible.

Grant

changing user name

If you send Grant an personal message and tell him what you want and he will change for you. It might get done faster this way, Grant might not read your post for a while. I did this 2 weeks ago with no problems. remember though user name is case sensitive.

Pete.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
