Profile picture

I wonder if someone could please help me - it's urgent! My husband was logged into his shared business account & walked off, leaving skype open at the mercy of my clever 3yr old son. I thought my boy was on my personal account & we began taking new profile pictures. By the time I noticed, our mummy&child picture was the corporate photo of my husband's boss's account. My husband has been asked to remove the photos, but I can't find anyway to do so or to replace it with telephone icons used in skype. This is very embarassing for me & my husband, any advice, please? If we can't remove the pictures, can we re-set the account? Please, I absolutely must sort this out - many thanks.

Here's a new Skype avatar for you to use. Simply right-click on the picture and select "Save picture" an save it locally on your computer.
Within Skype open from the menu "Skype -> Profile -> Change Your Picture".
Then select "Browse..." and choose the picture you just saved.

  • Profile picture and status bar don't appear in Game Center

    I first signed up for Game Center when it was released in the days of iOS 4. I used my iPod Touch 2nd gen. There was no status bar or profile picture, but I didn't realize because I was new. I later changed to an iPhone 3GS when iOS 5 was released, and the iPhone was restored to the backup of my iPod Touch. After my iPhone was fully functioning, I retired my iPod Touch. I noticed then that I was missing the profile picture and status bar because my Game Center friends had them. In December 2011, I bought myself an iPad 2 Wi-Fi. Still, no profile picture or status bar. I am confused, because my iPhone and iPad are running the latest version of iOS, 5.1.1. I have done plenty of troubleshooting, with no answer. Please help me.

    Yeah, my internet is on and working too. I have been looking in to this issue- I have emailed Apple to make them aware. It seems like it is affected most, if not ALL tbe Game Centers on 2nd Gen and from what else I've heard, 3rd gen devices too. Whether this is intentional I don't know- it seems odd that everyone has suddenly been disconnected from their games tab on Game Center older devices, so perhaps it is a ploy by Apple to ensure more people switch to a newer device? We'll see. For now, I would recommend you follow the posts I've put up previously too. See my profile for my contributions.
    Thanks, and add me on Game Center if you like.

  • Unable to change Profile picture in Windows 8

    I recently upgraded to Windows 8.  The upgrade imported a picture from my Windows 7 Skype, and now I am unable to change the profile picture.  There is no menu at the top in Windows 8, which prevents me from changing the profile picture.
    What are my options for correcting this, and also how does one sign out of Skype in Windows 8?
    Thanks so much.

    Although I'd love to provide a proper response, unfortunately I too have only questions, which I'd hope someone could answer. "Opening Skype and clicking on the picture" isn't as helpful as one would hope. With Windows 8 -- in either mode, through either Google Chrome or IE10 -- there is not only no menu or options with either right or left clicking, but no clear way to change a profile picture through any other means. I've tried everything I could think of -- literally wasting HOURS trying to change this thing. Googling the question gets me only fixes that don't appear to apply. In fact, the lack of coherent help regarding anything having to do with Windows 8 is nothing short of mindboggling -- and I consider myself a pretty good finder-of-information normally!!! I read elsewhere in these forums (unfortunately lost to me now that I have signed in) that it may be a problem relating to whether my browser is 32 or 64 bit (if I read it right). I have since tried to load Chrome in 64 bit.... probably unsuccessfully, given I still can't seem to do much differently. Being a bit of a techno-dud I don't know how to check which version I now have as even with the "about:version" function, the reply isn't definitive to my untrained eye (unless WOW64 means something?). I need things somewhat dummied down. I'm totally new to both Windows 8 and Skype (and for that matter Google Chrome, having always been a Firefox fan, which apparently is not working properly for Windows . ANY help that might be available would be greatly appreciated in making this experience less frustrating. Thank you for whatever you can do!!!

  • I can't change my Game Center profile picture in iOS 7

    I was going in to my new Game Center after I updated to iOS 7, and I was looking around on how to create a profile picture and saw that where the option is supposed to be on my Game Center "Me" page is blank.  Please help, I've seen other people who are able to do it. Please help soon, or Apple, if it's a bug, please fix it. Thank you.

    I finally found a workaround
    See https://discussions.apple.com/message/17099906
    I suppose you are french like me, so basically, switch your system to english in Settings, configure Game Center, and switch your system back to French.

  • I can no longer receive my email through firefox. Also my facebook account doesn't show some of the profile pictures show a different person on someone's name. It appears this is a firefox issues as when I go to explorer it is not a problem at all.

    It seems that through firefox I cannot receive my emails through charter.net and have always been able to before. Also, on my facebook page, profile pictures aren't showing up on some people and on some people a totally different person is showing up. It seems to be a firefox issue because when I get on internet explorer everything is fine? How can I get this problem taken care of? Can my 8.0 be updated.

  • Music App - Artist Profile Picture(s)?

    G'day all. I have a question i've longed wondered of since IOS 7 came out.
    Since the IOS 7 update, iTunes have set Artist 'Profile' pictures, meaning for each Artist, there is a goup photo showing who is in the band, e.g;
    Pink Floyd has David Gilmour, Roger Waters, Nick Mason and Richard Wright in a group photo.
    Linkin Park has Chester Bennington, Brad Delson, Mike Shinida, Rob Bourden, Pheonix and Joe Hahn.
    But there's other bands who don't have photos? Such as Aerosmith, Faith No More, Guns N' Roses, Icehouse and Johnny Cash (i have many more but yeah)
    Can someone explain why bands don't have a photo? Is it they weren't a noticeable enough band to have a photo? (not that GNR and all that aren't big :|)
    Cheers :)

    The bands you listed do have a picture in the iTunes Store. For some reason the Music app doesn't show those images. Usually when I open iTunes on my iPhone, the right artist images are shown, however not always.

  • Artist profile picture gone in music app, how to get it back?

    Hi Guys,
    I got an Iphone 5s 16gb space grey recently and i restored from backup after updating it from 7.1 to 7.1.2.
    I noticed that from my backup before and my old phone before my 5s (4s) that in the artists view in the Music app, there were artists profile picture which im presuming are their pictures from itunes. So that's what's showing on the artists view instead of the usual album covers from the artists music. If apple didnt have a "profile picture" for a certain artist then they would just show normal album covers from that artists which is also fine.
    However, after I updated and set up as new iphone (then restore from backup), the "profile pictures' from Apple are gone and the artist views are just showing album covers from the different albums that the artist have. Does that make sense? I actually quite like the Apple artist profile picture and would like for them to show up again, instead of the normal album covers. Hopefully that makes sense and any help or advice will be appreciated.
    Regards

  • User Profile Pictures not deleting / replacing

    Hello,
    I have been struggling with this issue for a couple of weeks and think I may need some help.  I have a user profile sync application which works fine, it syncs several attributes from AD into SharePoint, it also exports user profile pictures back to
    AD for Exchange and Lync to use, this all works fine.
    I was asked to replace a picture for a user, which I did using the 'Manage User Profiles' page in Central Admin.  I didn't realise there was an issue until I was asked again a week later, it seems the update had not worked.  I tried again, and
    lo and behold the picture managed to revert back to the old one again.
    After a lot of messing around deleting the picture, syncing, adding the new picture, syncing again etc I could not get the new picture to stay, the old one kept coming back. I do not think the issue is related to the sync, but more with SharePoint itself,
    here is a symptom I believe is related:-
    I delete a user's picture from 'Manage User Profiles', the picture is gone and the user's mysite page shows the placeholder pic.
    Looking in the mysites site collection in User%20Photos/Forms/AllItems.aspx the 3 pictures for the user have disappeared.  However if I browse to the url of the picture - User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/*username*_SThumb.jpg (or mthumb or lthumb) the
    picture appears in my browser.
    Next if I add a new picture for the same user through central admin, I then see the new picture in their mysite, I can also see 3 thumbnails of the user's photo under the mysites site collection in User%20Photos/Forms/AllItems.aspx
    So far so good, however, if I browse to the url of the picture (including the filename as above) then I am shown the old picture :S
    So it appears that the pictures in User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/_w and User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/_t are updating with the new picture, but the pictures in User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/ do not get updated, or even deleted properly when they
    are removed.
    Hope somebody can shed some light on this as it's really annoying me now! Thanks :)

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that the replacing picture not work properly in MySite.
    I tried to reproduce the issue in my environment(SharePoint server 2013+SP1), it works without any issue.
    Did the issue occur for all the users?
    To narrow down whether the issue is related to the User Profile service, you can use other accounts to check whether it works.
    If that is the case, you can recreate the user profile service application to check whether it works.
    If your environment does not install any updates, you can install SP1 or latest update to check whether it works.
    You can also check the event log and ULS log to see if anything unexpected occurred.
    To check event log, click the Start button and type “Event Viewer” in the Search box.
    For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS

  • Why are profile pictures of friends and family not displaying in my facebook anymore

    Something has happened to the display of friends and family profile pictures when they post. It is just written text and I cannot get their picture to display in conjunction with post as it was before.

    See [[Images or animations do not show]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.

  • Blurry Skype Profile Picture

    I've yet to see any legitimate fixes for this.  With this new client I'm now forced to use, I seem to be expericing this bug/issue.  When I encountered this in the past, I just downgraded a version and waited until a newer version came out that I didn't experience this issue with.
    Now that Skype is forcing people to use this one specific version (and future newer ones), I'm at a loss that this bug is still not properly fixed.  
    Also any responses about the image resolution, image quality, image file extention - no.  I've always had a HQ Skype profile image, I'm not trying to upload a picture from a potato that's 60x60.  It's not a stretching issue, it's not a resolution issue, it's a Skype issue.  I've never had this problem before and I've always had perfectly HQ images as my profile picture, when I rarely did have these issues, it was the versions fault after I upgraded - not mine.  Upgrading past that version or below that version gave me crystal clear profile pictures again and I never changed what I was doing or how I got them to be HQ.
    Now that I'm being forced to use this new version, I'd like to know if there are any fixes for this issue or are people who also have this issue (and have had it for awhile now - a simple google search will show you how far back this issue has occured) have to endure this until a new version comes out that hopefully does not carry on with the said bug?
    I've tried uploading the image at full resolution, smaller resolution, and from my phone.  Since I'm no longer able to use portable Skype apps that are lower than the newest version, I'm unable to utilize that fix.  I saw someone say uploading it from an iPhone works - I do not have an iPhone.  There was another solution about not using Windows 8 Desktop version - I use Windows 7 therefore I am unable to utilize that fix either.
    Has anyone found a work around for this?  A fix?  Anything?  

    Okay, this is just pure annoying. I have a professional group on Skype, because most are used to Skype over Google Hangouts. I've had this group for a very long time. Over the years, we've upgraded the logo, and each time, we've made a Group Profile logo in Adobe Illustrator, as a high DPI Vector image. 
    Well, for the past like year, our logo, no matter what resolution it's in (96X96), (480X480), hell the full on 1920X1920, and all variants I can think of between still leaves the image blurry. I've even created a pure black and white version of the logo, to see if color support was the cause. It's still blurry. I've uploaded from one of our Mac's (OSX 10.7), Windows 7 Pro, Windows 8.1 Pro, Windows XP Pro, Android (Moto X Gen 1), iPHone 6 Plus (latest OS), and it's STILL BLURRY. 
    This is a seriously high quality logo, yet Skype makes it garbage for all of the professionals in my Group to see. No matter how I crop it, change it, upload it and from where, it's still frigging Blurry.
    So as long as I use Skype, my brand will always look like retro-grade Windows 98 First Edition trash. Thank you Microsoft for never fixing this. I really appreciate the aggravation. 
    I've attached a sample logo (that isn't of my brand, or of my brands purpose). This sample is JPG that I just tried, as I was thinking maybe changing the image to something completely pointless may stop it from being blurry. It's still blurry. It's not any particular resolution, it's just a simple image to push home the point. It looks higher quality when full size, but in Skype, it looks like this: 
    --- NOTE, Microsoft refuses to let me post direct screenshots of the examples provided. 
    With that said, the first attachement is: 
    --- Screenshot of "Group Profile" Image ---
    <Link Removed>
    The second attachment is: 
    --- Screenshot of the Image, outside of Group Profile---
    <Link Removed>
    You see Microsoft?
    Or do you even care ever?

  • How do I change the picture that shows up when I airdrop something (profile picture?)

    I am wondering how I change the little circle picture that would show up on the device that I airdrop to. It's the one that's has your name under it when someone want to airdrop something to you. I guess it's like my profile picture.

    If it's the photo you used in contacts you change it there. Tap edit, then tap edit under your photo.

  • I was on facebook and deleted an icon by using the right-click menu but then all my pictures and all profile pictures, could no longer be seen. I was able to view them in Explorer so this is something I did in Firefox. How can I unblock a site?'

    '''I was on facebook and deleted an icon by using the right-click menu but then all my pictures and all profile pictures, could no longer be seen. I was able to view them in Explorer so this is something I did in Firefox. How can I unblock a site?'''

    If you select that right-click context menu entry then you block all images from that domain and not one specific image, so do not use that.
    * Check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions (e.g. sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net)
    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    * Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    * Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    * Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    * Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    * Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
