Is it possible to change you main access name for smugmug?

For example go from:

www.xxxx.smugmug.com

to

www.yyyy.smugmug.com

and if so, how.

Another example might be going from

andy.smugmug.com to bluemoon.smugmug.com

How would you do this ( and not lose anything!)

    Absolutely it is possible and can be done as often as you like.
    1. Go to Smugmug and click on "Your Photos" at the top of the page (or login if you are not logged in already).
    2. Click on "Control Panel" at to the top of your photos homepage
    3. The second section of the "Control Panel" page is "Your Account"
    4. On the second line is "Name" at the end of the line click "Edit"
    5. Change your nickname to what ever you want as that is what www.xyz.smugmug.com is
    Hope this helps. Don't hesitate to ask anymore questions.

    Hello this is my first post even though I've had my account for many months. I am so glad this question was brought up as I was searching for answers to this.

    I hated the name I picked of Bedazzle Box and wanted it changed before I put up my photos. I'm only now working on organizing my images etc. so it may take me a few weeks to get it up and going but thanks for this great forum.

    Ummmm now I may have to make a new account for the forum too as I just automacally gave myself the name of my account to log in lol.

    btw from what I see just browsing around there sure are some talented and helpful people here iloveyou.gif I like it!!!!
