Who uses the profile picture?

Simple question.

Here's my updated one, with a little message that i'm sure teh Goat will enjoy

I may be using one at the moment. I'll just use it as an alternate, "More invisible" avatar.

I'll see what I have.

EDIT: .. Got it.

Yep. It's a picture of me, from near the "Abbey Road" sign in London, but has been cropped to just my face.

What is a picture profile? I went to User CP and looked in profie but there's nothing about a picture or anything.

I started using it when I first heard about it. I've changed the pic multiple times since then.

I'm pretty sure its a required post amount thing because I tried to find it and also failed. I'm not positive though. So I guess my answer is no, I dont use a profile pic, because I dont know how.

Once I get PSP back on this computer, I'm going to crop the picture I submitted to the Member Pages and put it in my picture profile.

Someone posted this idea a while ago that if those who wanted to be included in the Member Pages put their real life picture as their profile picture, a page could be made to display all of them (like those who click a check box in their User CP that says, "Include my profile picture as part of the Member Pages"😉. With something like that, it'd all be hosted on AGN, and there would be no need for an external host.

Note: No disrespect to Atma, who runs the Member Pages and does a great job, I just thought that idea was really good whoever posted it.

Ah yes but we don't really KNOW what Master Ghaleon looks like. *smirk* ....

I don't use one, I did before but I decided to get rid of it quite recently.

The point I'm trying to make is that why would you use the profile pic for anything besides an actual picture of yourself? It seems strange (to me) to put another avatar up there.

...please don't tell me I need a thousand posts for this feature too.

Auuuuugh. I don't see the option. 😞
