How do I change my profile picture?

[Cookies]

seriously how?

[-TBC-AeroAce]

@Cookies I have dug around on the main site settings and the forum settings and can't find it.

 

I do seem to remember seeing a post saying that is no longer possible to change/add pictures at atm but I might be imagining that.

 

If I'm correct that kinda sucks but there could be many reasons the team would do that.

Profile pictures cannot be changed right now.

Says the guy with a profile picture! I understand there should be controls but, it still should be doable and validated by IL2.

As in the only forum on the whole internet. 

 

Why?

That's what 1CGS management has decided on for the time being.

I would imagine they don't want to see certain flags, images etc...

They could easily get around that, by having a forum master to approved ones avatar, before it is published.

Ok, how about, can you advise how one could add the BOM, BOK, etc, tags most have on there profile???

 

[LukeFF]

@Fernitz_-_LLM007, tags can only be added for content purchased here, not on Steam.

[Fernitz_-_LLM007]

Ouch, that hurts LukeFF  ?

Hello!

Situation is still the same? no way to change profile picture? It looks absurd to me

[Avimimus]

Still the same and no plans to change.

 

We can make up for our looks with personality, I guess? 😄

I agree, with the addition of only one change allowed per six months (or something), otherwise I can see somebody getting ploughed under. Lol.

In terms of the socialmeedja/community impact the restriction is certainly not a good look imo.

Honestly, I don't see how having generic avatar images is a bad look, and there are better uses for the time of the community manager than manually changing avatars for every forum member. There are more constructive and useful things we could be doing.

It's a little function people enjoy playing with. The generic avatar makes the forum look a bit dilapidated imo.

Plus I want my hat-chasing one back. Lol.
