Mods: Since many people are asking about this I decided to do a small tutorial. If anything is incorrect feel free to change it. Also feel free to pin this post. I will add one shortly on posting photos. |

You can do it a couple of ways, but this is probably the easiest.
Right-click on the image> retype the name of the file and make sure that everything is lower case. |

Ya...still no luck. I even tried getting my daughter to help me, and nothing. I just have to say... Oh My GOODNESS! Don't let Jack Jack hear me say this but...that is the cutest baby ever! I wish I could have seen my baby when he was that little! That picture makes me smile! |

| When you browse your computer and click on the file then it shows the file extension, just scroll to the very end of that box/line and change the .JPG to .jpg. |

No matter how I try it. It only lets me chose from a couple of pictures never whatever I want. Tried downsizing picture, lowercasing. does not matter |

| Ok, what's the trick for changing the avitar? When I try, it gives me a "Update completed", but the avitar won't change. I tried removing the old one first and everytime I hit "update profile", it goes back to the same picture. Now I feel like a DumbDumb too. |

Kim, sometimes it just takes a little while to go through or you have to refresh your browser. I think I see the new one...its one of the pictures that you just posted where Amos has his tongue hanging out?  |

| For some reason it does not work for me. Part of the reason I am sure is that I am computer illiterate and machine deficiant. They just don't like me! I try to deal with computers and other machines and I am very careful to be polite and civil in my manner to the machines but it does not work. So I must have my kids do it or get a hammer and hammer the blasted thing into very small pieces!!! |
