Whenever I tried it my zebra was upside down, or was showing only his nose. I don't know what I did in the end to get him right. Still trying to get a picture on the background bit above. Wanted to put on one of my paintings but can only manage a steak of sky. When you get it sorted Ray maybe you can teach me?

Enjoy your weekend.

whenever i try to change my profile pictures mine tend to be the wrong way round too. So just to experiment Ive done just that. Trying to change pics with a picture in my photos folder the were upside down. so i placed both pics on my desktop and added from there. both picture added correctly. don't know if this would help but worth a try.

Thanks Jjude but I am having a problem finding out how to get a profile picture on in the first place. I must try and work it out.

Thanks Katinka. Thought it was about time I put a profile picture on but cannot find the way to do it. Would love to see your painting. I used to do a bit myself and keep thinking about going back to it.

Well if you look at my profile you will see what I have just managed to put there. It is a quick watercolour and a bit truncated. As I say it was a vibrant September morning, about 8.30. I stopped the car because the colours were so striking. And took a few shots with iPhone. (Clever little buggers) Played with the images on my Big Mac, cropping and a few tiny adjustments. Painting is what I called my silver lining, I put up a few posts about Silver Linings a while back, i.e. things that we would not be doing if we didn't have shitty lung diseases. (Sorry about the language) Now I can't walk in the afternoons I paint while listening to audiobooks. Sheer bliss.

Do, do get back to it. There are others who have started doing it. There is very little physical exertion in lifting a brush. Maybe have an online exhibition of members pictures?

All the best

Thanks Kate. Just had a look at your picture, looks lovely, I will have to get my brushes out and try again. Do you sketch as well?

Katinka46 in reply toRay47

I try to always have a very small sketchbook with me and just sketch whatever is in front of me when I have to sit down. I deliberately don't choose just what is there. Tree roots, someone sitting at the cafe, ducks on the canal. Anything.

I will definitely start again. You have given me the inspiration. All I have to do now is find the time lol

Thanks. How about getting a picture on the rectangle above? As I say I have tried every way to get one of my paintings there, and only get a strip at the top.

At least it is a colourful strip and shows some brushwork, but not quite what i wanted.

I'll have another go.

Same katinka, I put pic on my desktop first, then went to edit profile, upload picture. I was able to move the picture to where I wanted it showing.

Can putting a profile pic on only be done on a laptop or computer, as my iPhone or iPad won't let me or I'm not doing right 😜 xx Sonia xx

Sonia, same here. I can't put on a profile picture either & I use my iPad or iPhone. 😀

According to the technical help, I can't put a profile picture on if I am using a tablet or smartphone

Thanks Ray, that's what I thought. Well no photo for me as I don't have a desktop computer. It's in the loft!! 😀

Ray47 in reply toJessy11

I do have a laptop but it hasn't been used for a couple of years. I will have to charge it up and see if it still works.

Ahha! A slightly better try. Some of it is missing but it will have to do.

The picture is of our recreation field in the village on a vibrant September morning a few weeks ago, and yes, it really was as golden as that. Thanks for the help.

Thanks, just mentioned to Ray that we should have an online exhibition of our work. Quilting, knitting, paintings?

We are a very talented bunch.

Oh crumbs! I can't remember and I know it took me a while but then it all suddenly came together. Not going to change it now ever. Btw the little boys in my picture are my partner's grandsons. I think they were about 6 and 3 at the time they are now just coming up to 11 and just turned 8. Time flies.

Hope someone can give you the info on putting a profile pic on.
