Changing account URL

Chris Hart says:

How can I change my account link?

example www.flickr.com/photos/YOURNAMEHERE

There seems to be no option to do so.

(because you've already done it once Chris, those of you who still have number gobbly-gook at the end of your url can change it ONCE from your account page to something friendlier)

Let's face it - how many hours do we all burn refreshing and zipping around flickr without any particular destination :)

I get it in comments too!

Bruna Pazinato says:

I also would like to change mine. What you people are saying, is that if I had already change mine once I can’t do it again. But if I never changed??? How could I change it know without losing my entire pictures and my Pro account?

Thanks in advance.

Bruna I doubt you'll be able to change, you'll just have to get used to it.
