I desperately want to change my personal URL. i saw a post in the help section but it was closed last month so lets open up a new one. Has there been any change in the wind over at flickr? can we change our URL's yet? im trying to start a small business out of my photography and it would be helpful to be able to have my business name in my url to put on my cards.... i know im not the only one that wants to chane url's...

But you do know that you're not supposed to run a business off of Flickr, right?

You could invest in a new account and use the present one for personal photos and the second for the types of shots you would collect in a portfolio. You'd be free to set the new account with the URL you want (if available).
As Lú says you can't use Flickr for business but you can link to a business website from your profile.

Doug, you may just want to get your own domain for what you need.
Or maybe get some MOO cards with your flickr data printed on them.
I'd hazard to guess that the URL structure within Flickr isn't going to change.

It's funny that you suggest moo cards because thats what inspired this urge to change. I want my moo cards to have the proper flickr URL on them.

I think it's unlikely anything is going to change, but this would be a good topic to post over at Flickr Ideas:

Well, I have some similar trouble with my Flickr URL.
When I opened my account two years ago I put some weird name in the URL 'cause I was testing Flickr to see whats going on, but soon I started to love Flickr, someone purchased a pro account for me and a month ago I purchased another year! but as I don't wanna loose all my comments and favs I didn't open a new account but really wish to change the url!
I mean, actually my url is:
www.flickr.com/photos/ravenpix/
but I want my name in that url:
www.flickr.com/photos/alexdukal
or maybe
www.flickr.com/photos/dukal
I know thats not as easy as it sounds ...

At least, the answer is easy: Once set, you can't change your URL, as explained here: www.flickr.com/help/account/#90
