    funny money... if you click on your name, you can see your profile.
    i believe you will see something like "profile tools" or "user options" near the top.
    click on that & you should be able to make changes.

    Hate to disagree with you on this one slowhike, but username is the one thing a user can't change by themselves. There are options for changing email, password, avatar, displayed profile info, personal picture, etc...everything but username. That requires either a mod or admin.

    There's good reasoning behind it. It would be chaotic if users were constantly changing their names. Hard to tell who's who then. Most forums allow it on a case by case basis, though.

    I think you could simply re-register with whatever user name you want?
