Changing My Name

Simon IA Cash · 2006-09-14, 04:47 PM

This is for all the TGP owners out there.

If I submit a gallery under a certian name and e-mail address, is it a bad idea to submit later on under the same e-mail address, but a different name? I've submitted to a bunch of sites under "Simon" for my name, but I just got to one where it said "wrong password for the username", because someone else picked Simon already. If I submit to all the ones I submitted to under a different name, is that gonna be a big deal? Same ip, same e-mail address.

Thanks!

It's best to always submit with the same name. Reviewers will get to know your work over time and associate the work with a particular name. If you start changing your submit name up all the time, it leads to questions and it will be all that much harder for you to brand yourself as a quality submitter.

If you are having issues with the one site due to someone else already using that name, just contact the owner and get your submit name and password changed.
