When you first register an account on the Commons, you are assigned a default profile photo (or if you are a WordPress.com user, your WordPress avatar). You will probably want to change this photo to something more personal – a headshot, a photo of your dog or cat, a landscape that speaks to you, or whatever you find might represent your presence on the Commons. This profile photo will be public, so if you are not sure what to use, you might want to leave it as the default.
To change your profile photo, you will need to have an image on your device that can be uploaded. Click or drop the image file as shown below:
The image you choose will probably exceed the size of Commons profile photos. In this event, you will be asked to crop it. Pick the most important part of the image and click “crop.” Remember, you can always go back to your original default image. You can also repeat the process as many times as you want.
