Is there a way to change my nick without creating a new account?

gwall - since you have no skins posted, just sign up with your new nick. Make a new account and delete the old one. Then you will be Garry....

btw - afaik only T-Man could change a nick. The message board is not going to get action on something like that, you would need to send an email for such a request. It's a holiday weekend here in the states so the soonest your request would be seen is Tuesday. The chances are, after reading your email, T-Man would respond that you could just sign up for a new account with whatever name you want. So the quick and easy way is - make a new account...

Thanks for double checking. I tried set up a new account and got confirmation fine. I still have the same nick.
Of course I used the same email address as it's the only valid one I have (i.e. non-hotmail etc.) and the one my stardock/obdn/skinbrowser accounts are registered with.
Logging in still shows the old nick.

Now you need to change the email on the old account, log out, delete your cookie, log in with your real email and you should be logged in on the new account.

Yay! Finally made it. As it turns out, Garry was taken but Chef Garry is fine.
Thanks again David. It took a while but there it is.
