Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.

I don’t know the answer, or whether it’s within the forum software or something to do with file sizes on your computer, but I’ve had the same issue with mine. I wanted the whole pic of the Rowan berries but couldn’t change it.

Pretty sure you’d need to reduce the image dimensions on your computer first. Probably down to something like 480x480.

If unsure how to do that yourself, you could use something like: https://imageresizer.com/

Just hold hold your phone a bit further away when you take your selfie.

There should be drop-down menu on your computer's toolbar called 'file'. Open that up and there should be an option to change the image size. Play around with that until it fits.

Your 2nd image might need a bit bigger white boarder, certainly on both sides.

If mesquites don’t work I’ll try sort it shortly - I suspect you need to add the pic onto a white square.

Right click on the image you want to use and select save image as... and that will let you download it to your pc.

Select the saved image file when you amend your avatar
