How do I change my profile picture?steemCreated with Sketch.

in #profile7 years ago

Hello people! As you´ve probably already guessed by the title, I´m new to this website and there is one particular thing about it that I simply can´t figure out how in the world I change my profile picture! It tells me to link to the picture´s URL but I have no idea how to access it :/ . Maybe I´m simply too stupid to understand...XD. So anyways, could anyone help me with this? Thanks!

Go to "Settings," in the menu in the upper right corner. Once you're there, you'll see a field for "Profile Picture URL." That is where you put the URL for your photo that you want to appear as your profile picture. Good luck! And welcome!

If you need an image host, upload your photo to www.imgur.com and then you can get the photo URL from there. Just copy and paste it into place and you are good to go!

Thanks! I will do it ASAP :)

My pleasure!

You have to host it somewhere. Such as imgur.com. This may change in the future. You'll notice when you write your blog you can now drag and drop or select to upload pics to your blog as your write it. In the past all images had to be hosted offsite. So, even though the updates have included inserting an image without 3rd party hosting, to change your profile pic, you must first host it, then you copy the paste link by clicking the settings tab beside your wallet tab.
