Haha! So creepy! But I have no idea how to put a photo in for an avatar. I am technologically challenged!

I was looking earlier to see if anyone had an explanation for the sudden popularity of the alien avatar. Not a fan.

I thought we'd been invaded by aliens when I checked the board earlier today. Not a fan of them, as they are kind of creepy looking.

But I have no idea how to put a photo in for an avatar. Thankfully it's quite straightforward - click the Profile tab at the top, then on the right hand side click Edit Profile, then your avatar options pop up. There's quite a few choices but if you want your own photo/image you need to have it saved on your computer or wherever.

Just in case others are looking to change and don't want to waste time. I just tried to do it, but it says you can't be on mobile to do it.

I though there had been an alarming increase in the number of peas losing their hair due to chemo and updating their avatars to reflect that, it's a relief to hear it's just a default image.

You need to scroll to the bottom of the page and change your view to desktop from the bottom right corner. Then you can go through profile etc on your phone. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/MNrJDkDuSwqIMVw33MdD.jpg)

That is super strange I wonder if that avatar website shut down or something! Wonder if you could put your Bitmoji on for an avatar.

I got just an empty box too (and I'm on my laptop). So I finally just uploaded something since I was there anyway... I tried two times and the second time a woman's face/hair appeared. It looks like the same one a few others use. But that's the closest I got, so I "choose" it. But it didn't show up. So I am back to the alien avatar! If you figure it out, let me know. I have never been able to use a photo because my photos are too (big) or too much of something (I can't remember, jpg or something like that). I have no idea how to go around that as I have a dslr camera and it said that for all the photos I tried to upload.

I's unpleasant and creepy. I'll be glad to see those avatars replaced.
