Hi there!

Will a board member help? Or a tech person? If it’s a tech person:  
[cheap flattery] First of all, I’d like to say I love your work, this is an excellent and (almost always) smooth running board.[/cheap flattery]

With that said, could anyone tell me if I can change my name without creating a new account, and it that’s possible, how would one go about doing it? Thanks so much!

Things like that work best by e-mail to an administrator.

**Tuba** can take care of it for you, give her a ring at [TubaDiva@aol.com](mailto:TubaDiva@aol.com)
