Legendary Aced Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Hello everyone! After being a reader for a long time I decided that it was time to subscribe and support my favourite Windows-oriented news website. I went to the 'Upgrade Account' option and followed the process by paying through Paypal. Everything went well and I was able to complete the purchase. After a couple of minutes a received a confirmation e-mail from Paypal and Neowin informing me that my account has been successfully upgraded. All good. I decided to take advantage of the signature icon that is offered with the subscription and went into the settings panel in order to change my signature. Unfortunately, my signature icon displays my 'account name' instead of the 'display name'. Is there a way I can change that? Any help will be much appreciated! Many thanks, Legendary Aced.

The Evil Overlord Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Go to your profile, Click signature, That page lets you add the sig, if you're seeing the wrong one. Try using the reload feature in the link at the bottom. If you're trying to use a different name on the signature, you have 2 options, 1 change your name on the account abd reload the sig, then change it back, or 2 ask a member, or a staff member who know how to make custom sigs (like mine) to make you one and load it into the box in your user control panel. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleNeutrino Veteran Posted December 12, 2014 Veteran Share Posted December 12, 2014 you can set this as your signature. https://www.neowin.net/signatures/417433/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legendary Aced Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Thank you for the quick replies :D I went to My Settings > Signature and the available signature uses my account name 'kostas_pav' instead of my display name 'Legendary Aced'. I tried to refresh the image by regenerating but I still see the same name. Only the colour changed from dark grey to oragne :) This might be intentional or an implementation restriction, which is okay. I was just wondering if I can change the name show in the signature as Legendary Aced (which is my display name). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can Photoshop your own but the generated one will always be the username that is shown on your posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeMaster Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I think you can change your display name here. Though it will change it everywhere & not just the sig: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=core&area=displayname Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legendary Aced Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 I think you can change your display name here. Though it will change it everywhere & not just the sig: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=core&area=displayname I think I kind of messed up the Display Name and the Member Title. :blush: It all looks good now!
