Is there a way to . . .

[bobpal]

The spelling corrector on my browser changed my user name and I didn't notice. Is there a way to either change my user name to "bobpal" or to delete the current account so that I can create.a new one?

Thanks for the help and congratulations on the new forum.

I have the same question. Somehow, my name got clipped during registration.
This forum is looking good.

I'll ask the boss...

Hi Jack. Well, we can’t have you go through life here with a cut off name, so I fixed it for you. Welcome to Focus on Photography!

Hi Bob. I fixed your name too. Spellcheckers, a godsend and a nuisance all at once. Welcome to Focus on Photography!

Spell checkers should be banned. It’s almost worse than typing on a phone. Ugh.

Thank you very much!

I figured out how to get Word (actually Windows, since spell check is built into the operating system) to just flag the word(s) it doesn't like for the most part. It still sometimes changes some abbreviations for me such as ACN to CAN (acetonitrile to Canadian dollars)

Hey, Capn, what's that avatar of yours there supposed to be? Not that I really need to know myself. Asking for a friend.

A computer bug

If I find an older avatar, I'll replace it/

Are GIFs valid for avatars?
That looks like a frame of a bug crawling around that I've seen before...

It took the GIF but didn't animate it.

Oh, that's too bad.

The other XF forums I'm on work with GIF animations just fine. I'm sure there's a way we can get that working here too. Probably not in any priority queue right now.

Is there a way to see or add lens and camera info, without the poster actually typing in below a picture?

Not yet, Piet. We're working on that.
