To the right of my image on my profile it says the word "Profile" on digg.com. I noticed everyone else seems to have a name there instead. I can't figure out how to change it. Can somebody show me how? Take a look if you don't mind.
Thanks,
Eddie O.

Thanks for the reply alexsk8ca. For example take a look at Nick's profile. There are many more like it.
Nick's profile (http://www.digg.com/users/killerofkiller/profile)
I hope you didn't mind killerofkiller.

It goes by the section, the profile section will say /profile in the url, if you click news it would be /news/dugg. Everyone has it.

I think he means where it displays your real name right beside the profile pic... in anycase, the fix for that is to just actually put something in for the "real name" part. If that wasn't your problem, then I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

You hit the nail on the head darknessgp. I do have my name in the "real name" box but it still shows as profile next to my profile pic.
I guess i'll email support at digg and see if I get a response.
Thanks yall!

Oh I gotcha. Yes it looks like that for everyone, For instance when I click on the link to your profile eddieo, next to your picture says Eddie O. But when I go to my profile it says profile next to my picture. So theoretically, if you logged logged out of your Digg account, then it would display it as Eddie O. and not Profile. So basically if it's your own profile and you're logged in then it will show as Profile, but to everyone else and when you are not logged in a viewing your profile it show as Eddie O.
