Profile pics (again)

Morning all.  I’m aware there has been threads on the subject of profile pics before, but they’re all quite old and the advice/technology may have changed.  I’ve had the same profile pic since I first registered to use CT years ago.  At that time one had to use a desktop rather than a tablet to add a profile pic, so here I am sat with both desktop and iPad trying to give my profile a new spin by adding a different photo, and failing miserably.

I log in, go to CT, go to the CT profile page, select Edit and get taken straight to my main profile page (contact details, outfit details, bookings etc.).  Even the Edit your details link on the main profile page doesn’t lead anywhere.  I’ve tried several times on both devices to no 

Does anyone have any ideas?  Am I doing something wrong, or is the site just not working?

BG, I find it only works for me if I use My Profile at the top of the page followed by My Profile Info. The My Profile on the right doesn’t lead to the same place.

Yes, TW, I think that’s the key.  Although the Edit button on the CT profile takes you to the main profile, it’s not editable from there.  I’ve just gone straight to the My Profile at the top of the screen and it has allowed me to change the picture.  I have also saved it so, hopefully, it’ll come up soon 🤞🏻
Thanks for your help.

I’m glad it’s changed as I’m still seeing the old one! 😂

That's taken four days for me to see your new Avatar Bandgirl, I did everything, refreshed and cleared the cache but low and behold I can see it today! smile

I’ve cleared the history and can see the new one now.  It’s one of those David Austin roses that we were given as a present for our 25th wedding anniversary in 2019 but I’m blowed if I can remember the name of it.  I expect it’ll come to me when I’ve hit Reply.

I have just supposedly changed mine. Using an iPad iOS 15.4.1. The photo does have to be less than 2MB, otherwise it is rejected and remember to go down to the bottom of the page and save. 
Although it’s certainly changed in my profile ( I have been back a couple of times to check) it has not flowed through to here yet and the old one is still showing.

Edit Cleared the cache and its updated.

I have changed my profile picture on my PC and clicked on 'Save'. The photo has changed in my profile but not when I come to post anything. From comments above, it seems that emptying the cache may be the way forward but which cache and how do I do it on a PC?
