Your screen name identifies you on the service and serves as your email address. It is your online identity by which you are known to everyone who uses the Screen Name Service, the Instant Messenger service, Email, Pictures and other services.

A screen name must be between 3 and 16 characters long, using letters, numbers, and spaces and must begin with a letter. Alternatively, you may create a screen name using your existing email address (eg, johndoe@domain_name.com).
