You need to change your password.

Solution

Your password can be changed by clicking your username in the primary navigation.

Discussion

If you've had your password reset, or are signing in for the first time, it's a good idea to change your password to something easier to remember.

Enter your author profile by clicking your username in the Primary Navigation. In your author profile you will find a Password section where you must enter your current password and then your new password twice. Press Save when completed.

Note that your password is only significant up to the first 8 characters (due to the encyption algorithm that Movable Type uses). Creating a password longer than 8 characters will not provide any additional protection and are, in fact, ignored by the system. To make a better password, you should instead include a mixture of letters, numbers, and characters, not using real words, etc.
