I tried to upgrade, but I receive an error message saying that my username isn't long enough, 6 - 8 characters.

How do members that have short usernames upgrade their accounts without changing their names?

Hombre: This bug only occurs if you upgrade using the CCBill option. For now, you would need to choose a longer username, than email me to upgrade your original account. You will have the upgraded features on the new account until I manually upgrade your original account. The process should take no longer than a day, usually within a few hours.

If you upgrade via PayPal, there is not bug and this does not apply.
