My "@ABCDEF" is "@365projectorgbilllaing". I want to change it to something else. Does anyone know how to do this? "@365projectorgbilllaing" seems to be derived from my username which is " http://365project.org/365projectorgbilllaing" This username is in my account settings, but I cannot edit it. I've searched all the likely website documentation, but cannot find any instructions on how to do this. Any help someone can provide me would be appreciated. Thanks.
@365projectorgbilllaing@30pics4jackiesdiamond Hey guys - yes changing your username is not supported through the site because it has repercussions - I can change it manually for you if you are ok with these...
1. Other users who know your username will obviously be confused and may @message the wrong username.
2. Your project url will change, eg http://365project.org/Scrivna - that means any places you've linked to your 365 project account or photos (such as posting links on facebook or your blog) will break and you'll need to update them or just accept they no longer work.
If you are happy with that, email me at ross@365project.org with your current username and what you'd like it changed to and I can make that happen.
@Scrivna Thanks for this clarification, Ross. I'll give the repercussions you've outlined some thought. At this point, I'm inclined to let things ride as they are. Thanks again for responding and enlightening us. I'm enjoying the 365Project experience. Thank you for making it possible to participate.

Hey, guys
Your names are not terrible. They are very unique and tell a story of who you are.
If you think that they are cumbersome to others, I think that most people just copy and paste long user names rather than type them out (I know I do!!)
I really would not worry about it. It probably annoys you more than others!!
