Make sure you're signed in, and just click "My Account" and go nuts. You seem to be able to sign in fine, so maybe you're just confused ;)

It appears that the special characters in your nickname do not agree with our code.  Since we are in the process anyway of having all the nicknames use alpha numeric characters I have changed your nickname to be just Meow. Sorry about that.

It's gone bad again and I am back to being *Meow??*. It's saying there is another Meow. I'm going to change to something else.

Ok Meow, Your site is working now. If you still can't access it it is because your DNS has not updated yet. You might be able to get it to update by running the following from a command prompt:

ipconfig /flushdns

Then close and reopen your browser.

Hi, I am not able to change personal info under "My Account". I am an Object Desktop subscriber. Shouldn't I be able to do this? Thanks.
