News: T+T Gallery Clarification (Your Name)

Just to clarify about choosing a name for yourself in the gallery … you don’t have to use a nickname/handle. You can use your real name. We just need names to be unique for each person. So you can use names like “John Smith” or “John Q. Smith” or “Johnny” or “John S.” or “JohnS,” we just can’t have five different people who are simply listed as “John.”

If your first name is already something unique, like Myrtle, you probably don’t have to worry that there are tons of other Myrtles out there in Toriville. But if your name is “Josh,” you can assume there are probaby a few other Toriphiles named Josh and plan accordingly.

Hope this clears things up (and if you would like to reconsider the name you’ve chosen at this point, let us know now).

UPDATE: Oh, also… We can refer to you differently in your photo description(s) if you like, since we write those manually. For example, if you’re in our database as “JohnDonJuan,” the description can say “John and Tori in Boston on…,” so if you’d like to be referred to by a slightly different name in your photo descriptions, you can let us know that, too. We just have to store each person’s set of photos under a specific username. Well, you’ll see what we mean soon. If anyone wants to make changes to names then, that will be possible for a short time.
