Problems Login in 3D warehouse

[Epix3D]

I have problems uploading models to the 3D warehouse. When logging in to the Google account within SketchUp and click on "Allow access", - a SketchUp window pops up saying;

"Sign-in error. Before using this 3D Warehouse service, you must choose an account nickname."

As far as I know I already have a nickname in my g mail account.. or where/how do I find this?

Please help!

In your web browser (not SketchUp),

1. Go to Google Dashboard ( where you manage your Google Account)
2. On the right, second from the top, there is a link "edit personal information" click on that
3. The top-most item is "nickname" field. Fill it in with a nickname you want to use.
4. Click "save" at the bottom.
5. Go to the 3D Warehouse and try to sign in. Your nickname should appear there.
6. Go back to SketchUp and log in to your Google Account from there (third button from the left at the bottom).

Wll, since I have had my nickname for ages now, I could not have recrated the whole proces but remembered somewhere I learnt it from Beryl, a SketchUp (and GE) TC.
