1) Click on your screenname in the top right corner
2) Click Account Settiings
3) Enter your new screenname

That doesn't appear to work for me. 

My screen name is locked in on that page and can't be edited or changed.

You're right.  That page should allow you to change your screenname, email or password. @Architecht

Guys,

Select 'Account Settings' from 'Settings':

To the right of 'Account Info' click on the little pen symbol:

That will take you to here, where you can amend and save your new name:

I've done it once or twice. I think you have to log out once done, then log back in for it to take effect.

Try it, and let us know. Don't choose 'Deleted' as your new name though, that way disaster lies....

Ah, I see from your name change that the instructions I provided worked for you! 

Great stuff...great...

People are funny aren't they. 

Kelmonster asks how to change his board name. BlowUpTheMoon gives an answer, and gets no response. Oak has a good natured dig, which I alone like. Domo Arigato points out that BUTM's advice doesn't work. BUTM notes this, and flags Arch. RMA likes that BUTM has flagged Arch. Arch doesn't respond. I provide the correct instructions. They clearly work, as Kelmonster duly becomes EC Phanatic. No one acknowledges my post, or thanks me for providing the correct instructions. When I point this out with my usual subtlety, ADAMANTIUM alone likes it. 

Everything you need to know about the boards exists in this thread.
