Username Changing

Please note that you need an active Premium Membership to be able to use this feature.

Did you know that you can change your username? Earlier this year, danlev announced that deviantART would be allowing username changes.

You can change your username by visiting http://www.deviantart.com/settings/identity. From here, scroll half-way down until you get to the "Change Username" box.

If you haven't already changed your username in the past six (6) months, then it should look like this:



Please read the rules in the box AND the announcement article before changing your username.


If you have already changed your username in the past six months, then the box will state when you will be able to change your username again.

All of your watchers will be notified of your username change. :)

Llama Badge Locking

Suggested by C-91 and written by bradleysays.

Did you know that you can lock your Llama Badge to the version of your choice? In order to do that, open your badges page, and click on your llama badge.

As an example, say you have a Fancy Llama Badge, but you want the Albino Llama Badge shown on your profile instead. From the list on the right, click the Albino Llama and it will lock your Llama onto the Albino version (illustrated below).



Congratulations, your Fancy Llama Badge is now locked onto the Albino Llama Badge!
