Chaning screen name difficulties

[Márcio_Silva]

Hello!

I don't know if I have encoutered a bug or I'm jus out of luck here.

I'm trying to change my screen name and its becoming a nightmare. My screen name is currently my first name, a series of random numbers and ends with fcp (totally random for me anyway).

Of course I went to my profile and tried to change but whatever the name I pick, it doesn't let me.

A name with spaces? No. A name without spaces? No. My name + surname + my "Design" thing I use to have pretty much everywhere? No. My name + surname + "Design e Fotografia" which is basically a set of names I use to identify my "photography brand"? Hell no, has too many characters.

But the screen name change window doesn't tell me the requirements for the screen name, so I don't have a clue on what should I pick for it.

Thanks for the help!

can you use Marcio_your_year_of_birth?

Maybe I could, haven't tried it. But I don't understand the type of name I can actually have. I mean, for the uniqueness factor, I already have my email to identify me at login. The "screen name" should be a regular "display name" even if it is similar to another user.

If the system absolutely requires me to choose a unique name, and the unique names I remember are not allowed, then I need to know the specific for screen names, right? Maximum character count, spaces, no spaces, special characters, there is no indication at all in the options.

 I will try again. Thank you!

do you want me to move this to the "ideas" subforum where you would be making that suggestion to adobe?

Now that seems an idea, I'm ok with that.

Meanwhile I have changed my name.

Thanks!
