iCompositions members now have the ability to change the username attached to their account. Your old Artist Page URL will redirect to their new URL and all posts and songs will be attributed to the new name.
Despite the existence of this feature, we strongly discourage members from using it. Changing usernames can be extremely confusing to other members so we hope most people will use it sparingly.
To change your username, visit Backstage > Preferences and click the Change link next to your current username. |

Is this facility for the poor iCompers who put their name in wrong the first time?
I can understand if it is, but otherwise...? |

Yes, that's the primary reason. There are a few people who will likely change simply because they don't like their names but other that, we hope it'll be limited to typos. |

Okay, we've modified the username changing policies a bit. You will now only be able to change your username once. This will cut down on the confusion while still allowing people who've had second thoughts about their name to correct it. Artist Page URLs will also now redirect indefinitely and the old username cannot be registered again. |

And now comes the time when we have to be reintroduced to all our iComp friends who have, or will, changed their names. |

Well first of all, you can't change it back... you can only change your username once. But once you do, your old one cannot be re-registered. |
