Go to Your Stuff > Profile and select "Edit Profile" from the right side menu. At the bottom of the screen, you'll see a place to upload "Your Image".

Once you have done this and saved it, it will show up next to your profile. Like this: kellie

Hope you enjoy it!

Awesome! I thought thats what it might of been, but I considered it "may" be an avatar (some forums use the wording) so I didn't want to go over my normal one.

Tried it, but it didn't work. It said it was the wrong format, but when I checked the picture again , it said the picture was JPEG AND I had downsized it to 600x480 as well. No biggie, as I reversed course and kinda decided against it anyway. At least for the time being. These self portraits are liable to wreck my camera. coastie65

The jpeg format is fine, and that size should be, too. Perhaps the filesize of the image is too large?

Hi kellie, it is 640x480 JPEG ( Upper case JPEG) and is 133 Kb in size. coastie65

OK, first try changing the file to one of these: .jpg .bmp .gif.tiff .png

Your file size is fine. If changing the extension doesn't work, try reducing the photo size to a max of 450 wide by 600 high.

If none of that works, let me know. Even if you no longer want to put a photo up there, I want to make sure it works properly.
