'''Registering a free account takes only a few seconds.'''<br> (Currently, your COLLADA wiki and COLLADA forum  usernames are unrelated; you can use the same name for both but will still need to sign in to each individually. This will eventually change.)


Simply choose a unique password and click '''create account'''. Please choose a password that is different from your username and which would be difficult to guess. All usernames ''will'' begin with a capitalized letter.<br/>You are not required to share your e-mail address, but providing one is the <u>only way</u> to retrieve a forgotten password. Do not use an e-mail address as your username. It will be very visible, and make you a target of spammers.
:<font color="red">'''For your own security, please choose a <u>''secure password.''</u><!--  See [[Password strength]] or [[Wikipedia:Don't leave your fly open|this essay]] for help in choosing a strong password.''' --> </font>
===Your username must '''''not''''' contain:===
*offensive, confusing, random or unreadable text or characters
*words like "bot" or "script" that refer to automated editing processes
*titles like "admin" or "sysop" that imply authority on this wiki
*domain names
<!-- ''For more information about which usernames are acceptable on Wikipedia, see our [[WP:USERNAME#Inappropriate usernames|username policy]].'' -->
'''Notes:'''
*You must have cookies enabled to log in to this wiki.
*'''Your username will frequently appear publicly on the site''';  consider the pros and cons of using your real name. <!--
