Just noticed recently that everyone’s profile pics (on WK side, community is fine) seems to be displaying generic WK ones. Anyone else seeing this?

To change the profile pic on your dashboard, you need to make use of Gravatar. Go there to set up your preferred profile pic. For the forums, however, you don’t need to do this, but can also upload any pic you want from your computer. This won’t show up on the dashboard.

I know, I set this up years ago, and it’s been working ever since. Now, though, it doesn’t show for anyone, like you can see in the screenshot of koichi’s account

Ah! I didn’t read the username and that it was his account! o\_O Not that I have ever checked it out before. I don’t really use gravatar, so I just never thought about it. Maybe tag the mods if you want them to have a look at it. Or email them as this is such a general category you’re posting in and they might not see the thread. 👀
