I am posting this thread so that people can understand how to setup the Display Name and several other useful settings. The Display name is the name that is displayed above your picture on the left hand side of the screen when you post something. It is by default your username that you signed up for the forums with, and should be yourfirstyourlast, ex keithkime. But You don't want to be stuck looking like a Wood Troll, so here's how to change it into Keith Kime.
1. On any page, at the top, click on the "Profile" link.
2. When it opens your profile, click on the Edit Profile button on the right hand side.
3. Click on the "Personal" Tab at the top of this new screen.
4. Here you can change your Display Name.
5. You can put in a Location. I put in my real location, but you can probably put whatever location.
6. If you have a website for say a shop selling goods, then you can put it here.
7. This Most Recent Status I have chosen to use to display my characters name with a snarky comment. Anything really can be put here. It shows up under your picture in threads.
8. This is your signature and you can use it for showing off all sorts of stuff, from small pictures to just quotes. This is different from signing a thread if you are posting as different characters, like plot, or your alternative characters.
