How to change your profile picture.  
The max profile image size is 200 x 200.  
First off, look for this bar:[http://yoyoexpert.com/forums/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=58094.0;attach=14610;image](http://yoyoexpert.com/forums/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=58094.0;attach=14610;image)  
Press the button on it that says, “PROFILE”.  
When you are on that page, look for and press the highlighted button

The next page will open up and you will see this section:

You can choose either one of the three options:  
Personalized Picture: You can choose a picture of an actor or a musician as your profile picture.

I have my own pic: You can copy and paste the link of the photo you want as your profile picture into here. In order to get the link for the image, just right-click it and press “Copy Image URL”.  
Just make sure that this image is the correct size for an avatar.

I will upload my own picture: Press the “Choose File” button and choose any image that is the correct size for an avatar.

Once you are done that, press the [http://yoyoexpert.com/forums/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=58143.0;attach=14617;image](http://yoyoexpert.com/forums/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=58143.0;attach=14617;image) button.  
After that, you are done.  
If somehow you still can’t change your profile picture (ex. A page comes up that says, “Error”), report it to a moderator. They know what to do.

Thanks for all your time!
