This article will assist you in registering on the site, especially in picking a good username and then knowing what to anticipate after you get the basic account creation accomplished. 

If you don't have an account, click on: Create new account

You'll be prompted for a username and a password. Suggestions for a username might take the form of:

  • RichardRoe
  • John.Doe
  • Jimmy Jumpbucket
  • JDoe
  • jdoe

etc. You might use the first part of your email address (NOT the "@xxxx" part). Something you can remember and also something that will give a clue to who you are.

Thereafter, a password and instructions will be sent to the email address you filled in.

If you don't see an approval message within just a few minutes, you should send a message to the webmaster via the FEEDBACK form explaining who you are and requesting registration on the site.

As soon as you get the registration email, log in with the username you supplied and the password the system sent to you. Once logged in, you need to CHANGE THE PASSWORD to something you can remember.

Unless and until you get registered on the site and logged in you won't have the advantage of the fullest experience available on the site.
