Tips & Warnings

• Print your confirmation page and keep it in a safe place. It includes your Member ID, password and full email address in case you ever forget any of your credentials.

• When choosing an email address, consider what you will be using it for. Many people have an email account that uses some form of their real name for professional purposes. It is common to have another, usually more creative, email address for personal messages.

• Be sure to choose a password that is not easy to guess. Preferably use a combination of letters and numbers.
