Good morning/afternoon/evening myLotters, i hope all is well with you.
i have something to tell, i tried to change my profile picture with new photo but it's not working, then i tried deleting old photo and re-uploading new photo and it still doesn't work. So, i'll probably keep this green lowkey profile picture for myLot account (Lol). I think this lowkey picture seems nice and friendly, so it is fine. simple things like this are also funny to me.
is changing profile picture on myLot difficult? how was your experience with this? Because i am still so new here.

There is nothing difficult about it as long as your photo is smaller than 3 MB. Nothing larger than 3 MB will upload here. It does take longer to upload the larger (pixel size) the photo is.

Changing the profile photo is very easy, but you cannot upload a too large photo.
I created my avatar using a graphic program, 400 x 400 pixels works very well, but you can also try with a a bit larger photo, NOT too big and crop one so that it will be a square.

Pixel size really doesn't matter as long as the photo file is under the 3 MB limit (which is the actual number that matters). This is 1546 x 1160 but is only a 794 KB file that will easily upload for a profile photo.

@ainnaqo66 No, my current profile picture has been this for about 12 years, but for the first five years, the profile picture varied, including occasional pictures of my dog at the time.

@ainnaqo66 It is so hard to use the internet sometimes that I gladly share what I already know with others.

It could be that your photo is too big. There may be a limit to how many MB (megabytes) your picture can be.
