Question

What does it mean by user ID should consist of a-z,A-Z,0-9 and underscores, and should be a maximum 20 characters long?

Community Answer

It means that you can use any combination of numbers, capital letters, lowercase letters, and underscores (this: _ ) in your username, and your username cannot be longer than 20 characters. Characters are numbers, letters, and symbols.

How do I make a unique username?

You can take your name and something you like and combine those two words together. Say you liked mushrooms and your name was Olivia. Your username could be "Mushroomia."

Question

What if I have a username that other people like, but I don't?

Community Answer

Depending on the service you're talking about, you may be able to change your username. If you can, make sure you really like the new one, as many services only allow limited changes. On top of that, it can become annoying to your friends if you change your username often.

If I chose the same username for YouTube as I do for DeviantArt, would I be confined to showing only artwork on YouTube?

Community Answer

No, not at all. Many people reuse the same username so fans can find them on different platforms.

Question

I have forgotten my username and password. What can I do?

Community Answer

Navigate to the service that you were using. In most cases, there will be a link that says something like, 'I forgot my password'. You normally just have to type in the email address you used to sign up and you will be sent instructions on how to proceed. If all else fails, create a new account.

Of course. It's more likely to be taken if it's a popular character but it will definitely be easier to remember.

Question

What if I want a username that’s already taken?

Tobias

Top Answerer

If the username you want is already taken, you can try changing some aspects of it. For instance, if the username you want is "ArtRabbit", you can change the name by adding some numbers (ArtRabbit7), changing spelling (ArtRabit), or using synonyms/similar words (ArtBunny).
