Well then . . . tough luck. On the flip side though, IMHO your current name is just fine. Calling yourself "Night_Crawler" would make you sound like a clear X-Men fan, "chrislock" is a bit more general and doesn't reveal what your primary interests are. We have plenty of "fan"s, "gurl"s, "lover"s, etc. when it comes to usernames. It's the original-sounding usernames that are the most memorable....

If your account "gets deleted" for breaking rules, no. If you requested it be deleted, you can sign up for a new account, yes.

If you want your current account to be deleted, contact cstdenis explaining the situation.

Rule #1 for a family computer is:

ALWAYS. LOG. OUT.

I don't think we can stress it enough. Don't leave the door open when you're not around.

A correction to fallen's comment. Email such requests to support@fanart-central.net, not to me.

Xangel, I moved your email to the correct address, so you dont need to worry about it. Just mentioning here for future refrence.

what about the names in the brackets? My mom's been begging me to change it. She keeps telling to get a new account because of it.

Another question straight out of the FAQ (I believe). Go to the FAC main page and click on "Edit Profile".

Personally I recommend specifying a nick that matches/resembles your screen name.

But keep in mind the change isn't retroactive, it will only affect new posts.

It *should* affect old ones too.

In theory, yes... but in practice, not that I've seen. Here's an excerpt from a quick search I did. RoseDagger shows up under both her nicks (older and newer).

Truth be told, this gave me a bit of confusion when I was still new to FAC :wacko:
