Can't change my pic!

When I joined this site almost a year ago I was very introspective and now I FINALLY have my banding date of 3/4 and I want to change my profile pic to something that shows my more fun side and I have not been able to do that on this site...so frustrating!

Oh no....I know that....it like freezes when I do that. I also tried to do it under my edit profile page. Maybe it's my computer setting?? Hmmm....weird.

I emailed Alex 3 times for help and no one ever responded.

I had trouble too, tried both an iPad and laptop, but then I tried the app and that was much easier for posting profile pic.

I just pressed and held my thumb on my cell screen until a choice of camera or gallery popped up. Good luck.
