I am facing this glitch no mater what browser I use (Firefox/Chrome/MS Edge/Safari).

When I try and upload a new image the site absolutely refuses to change it from the image that I currently have.

If I try and change my avatar to one of IF's standard avatars then it does change to that, but then when I try and change that image to one of my choice it immediately defaults to my old one (the avatar I have currently).

I have been trying for a few days and it is very frustrating.

Try as I have written on previous page. I used to have the problem.

Go to dashboard >> update profile >> prefernces >> scroll down to last option Avtar Link >> copy image** address (chrome) / image location (firefox) and paste the link at the blank box >> submit. It should work. After reloading the page you would see the image beside the blank box. It will be your profile photo.

** At first open the image/gif you want to make your profile photo in a new tab. Then by right clicking on the photo select "copy image address" for chrome   or     "copy image location" for firefox. The address should contain http// and .jpg or .gif at the end.

But there is no problem either changing or viewing our moving/animated avatar  ( the one you are talking about in this post ) . We are facing problems changing or viewing the changes in our profile picture.

Trying using another browser. It probably won't show the same photo.

I've been having the same problem. I've tried clearing my cache and trying different browsers, but the display picture refuses to budge.
