Issue changing forum picture.

[SexyBabyJesusZ]

Hello, I'm trying to change my forum picture. And whenever I upload a new one, it just changes to my old accounts skin. I need to know how to fix this ;-;

I used to have this problem. From my experience with this, It was always random forum accounts that are able to upload pictures without difficulty. Unfortunately, if you are like me, and have troubles with this, the only other solution is Gravatar. There should be an option to use Gravatar. Gravatar is basically when you associate a picture with your email. (From what I know) I have heard bad things about Gravatar, I kind of didn't feel safe using it. If you were like me, and you wanted to change your picture but don't feel safe using Gravatar, make an Email that you never use/you would never touch, specifically for Gravatar. This way nothing would ever happen and you would have nothing to worry about, and in the end, you would be able to upload the picture of your liking.

I used to have this issue before, but overtime, as I waited, it worked for me. I'm a little unsure on how, but I think it entirely depends on the picture you are posting.

Like Moose already mentioned, the only way you are currently able to change your profile picture is by using Gravatar.

You can find an in-depth guide on how to use Gravatar here. Note that it may take a few minutes for your profile picture to update, so don't worry if it does not take place immediately. I know from experience.

QA;TL. If Gravatar does not seem to work for you or if you have any other questions / concerns, feel free to shoot me a PM and we'll figure it out.
