I notice that there are people who change their profile pics like on a daily basis. Do you do this too? I don't. Sometimes it'd take me months to change my profile pic. Do you think it is good to change it very often? I wonder why people change it so often. What are your FB practices?

That sounds like my ex she was always changing her pictures on Facebook, in fact she was tied to Facebook morning, noon and night when she wasn't at work LOL. I changed my picture as soon as we split, it was a picture of me taken on our last holiday together, I found an old pic, ironically I will use a real picture of me on Facebook, mind you my profile is set at private, I was considering changing it to the wolf.

Hi cutie18f
Yes i also noticed that people who use Facebook most of them update their profile pic frequently .I never put my pic in any social networking sites so no chance of changing it . I don't know the exact reason why they change it frequently everyday ,i think it is fun for those who do that one of my friend change's it hourly basis also it's kind of strange habit.

I don't change mine very often. Actually I think I have only changed it 3 times in the last 4 or 5 years.

I was just thinking about this today as I nabbed my profile pic to update it on here. I change it maybe 3 times a year max.. I don't like pictures as it is, and I would prefer an actual profile picture of one, versus a silly picture.

I have changed my profile picture only three times in all the years that I've had a Facebook account. I also don't log into Facebook often.
I could see uploading new pictures to their albums, but not putting a new default picture every time. Only thing I can figure is they don't know how to share or upload pctures properly or they're very indecisive.

I don't feel it's necessary to change it often. I will only change it when the photo is too old and my looks have changed a lot. I don't usually put other random picture as my profile picture.

It takes year before I change my profile on facebook. I rarely visit my facebook because I am too busy. I don't know why they change profile picture on daily basis from facebook. Maybe they want themselves to look good and every day they're not satisfied and so, they change profile picture from faceboook often.

It believes from people to people. Some people, especially those who give much concern and attention to the fashion, are always in the habit of a change in their style and this causes them to change the profile pic of their facebook account repeatedly and some even on the daily basis. But , as far as my usage is concerned , I have only changed my profile picture not more than four times and in fact haven't even changed a single time since one and half year. I don't think it is a good think to change the profile pics. And I believe in choosing the good prof image , and setting it for much time.

I'm hardly on FB that much. I'm on tumblr. Every now and then, I change it. Every day? Nahhh. Like, I'm the type of lady who doesn't really do the makeup and the jewelry stuff, so, I know people change their pics when they wanna show off their new look. I change it less frequently. Maybe if the season is changed, maybe if my hair is different, or maybe if I have a pic I just think is cute. Changing it daily is just strange to me.
