Just above this window in the blue strip, there is something called MyPop. Click on that. There is a tab called profiles where you can alter all your info
This is the name that will show in your profile and against your posts. If this field is optional and you leave it blank, your username will be used.
This is the message you get when you register. I left it blank. I'm assuming that as a result, the default Display Name is satori001 and for some reason, the option of changing it was removed.
It's probably a bug. I just registered under "satori" but entered something for a Display Name this time. I am able to go in and edit the profile without getting the error message. There is a place to edit the Display Name, however satori001 does not have such a place.

Paw, you might want to let new people registering that they should not leave Display Name blank on the registration page, or they may run into this problem.
Same thing musta happened to me, Sat'. I thought I put in "Dis" "Play" as my display name, but I guess not. Now I've got the asterik and no field to enter it or change it, can't edit my profile with witty sayings.
Looks like that fixed it! Lessee...yeah! We be yammin'! It changed to Dis Play and now to socks when I changed it back! Which means, I can change "socks" everyday!
Is there a preview button somewhere that I missed? Even though I post mostly on Word before I put it on the forums, I still like to see if any spaces were put in where they shouldn't be, etc. (on Word, that always happens for some reason).
No preview that I can see either, but the posts come up so quick and with that warm and friendly "thanks for contributing" message that it's not so bad.
If you were getting your icons from Greasespotcafe.com/forum-images you can continue to do so. There is no gscafe.com/forum-images directory at this point
I will add to the current choices here soon. I am still working on some ftp problems.

I did that in the first place. I didn't just fall off the turnip truck ya know.
I found the mypop & profile link and made my witty and brilliant changes and tried to save 'em. That's where I get the error message I quoted.
It says I need to provide a name but it gives me no place to do it. I forget the exact message, but I pasted it into the subject summary.

(The post will look
like this and I have to go in to
take out the spaces.)

I'm doing good if they're the same color, Hope!
