I cannot for the life of me figure out where in the account settings you update your account avatar... Any suggestions?  I don't think I used Gravatar as I could not find an account based on my emails.

Where does the image come from? How do I change my profile picture, or avatar? How do I change my profile picture on all SE sites at once? How can I use different avatars on different SE sites? How do avatars work? How do the SE sites know when I changed my Gravatar? Why do SE sites show a different Gravatar identicon than other sites where I use the same email address? How can I use a Gravatar image after logging in to facebook.stackoverflow.com? I changed my picture but am still seeing the old one    See also:

I recently updated my profile bio (from Arqade) and clicked 'Save and copy changes to all public communities'. This appears to have broken/reset my profile picture on all but Arqade. Note that I did not update my profile picture as part of my changes. Arqade:  Meta SE for comparison:  I haven't touched my profile picture in years. Is this a bug?  Update: It appears my profile pic across all communities has been set back to 'Identicon'. I went on to Stack Overflow and changed my profile picture back to 'Gravitar' and clicked 'Save and copy to all communities' again, but this did not update my profile picture anywhere but SO. (I did the same on Sustainability to be doubly sure). Update 2: This is a persistent bug - I had changed most of my SE communities back to my 'Robotnik' display pic over the past little while. Today I edited my profile again on Arqade, Clicked 'Save and copy' - and the display pic reverted back to identicon again across all sites. Update 3: I have re-uploaded my profile picture and the 'Save and copy' function worked. It appears that this is actually a bug to do with the old images from Gravatar.

When I loaded the review page (in Stack Overflow, though I have no specific reason to think it is related) I got a weird hat in the upper left hand corner.    See the hat in the upper left hand corner?  That's belonging to user # .  His profile page also has the hat in a ... weird ... location, but not this weird.    I'm guessing this is due to the not-loaded image for the avatar (adblock blocks Facebook avatars for me often)?  It also causes the toolbar notification to show his link unless I'm hovering over something else.  It also changes the location of the gray box to the upper left hand corner when I hover over the hat (and hovering over the white box does nothing).  It's definitely him (or any not-loaded avatar perhaps), once he fell off the last 6 reviewers it stopped appearing.

.  It would be nice to have the option to just upload an avatar rather than have to use some external service like gravatar.  While gravatar may be convenient and useful, it's also a serious privacy concern because the operators of gravatar have basically got a web bug that allows them to track users and identities across multiple sites.  ISP proxy servers can do similar tracking, associating their own users with gravatars and logins on various sites just by analysing the proxy logs... as can corporate and other proxy servers.  Lots of people don't have a problem with that, but I do.  So I refuse to use gravatar and similar services.  (I'm not terribly happy about OpenID for the same reason &#8212; but at least I can set up my own OpenID server if I want to... which is what I'm going to do when I can be bothered.)

I've been looking for hours now on how to edit a profile on Apple Configurator but to no luck. There are some similar responses, but none of them were of too much help. I am trying to edit a profile that exists on a iPad Air, but not the mac. Can anyone help me?

I updated my email on SO, and for some reason now, I've lost 4 silver badges and 10 bronze badges. Not sure what is going on here, does anyone have an idea?

, we should have the same functionality in careers. It still only allows gravatar pictures.  There's an [old pre-native picture question][2] asking basically the same, but seeing that it has an accepted answer I created a new one.

Based on , I have started building a unicorn avatar maker. It's still quite ugly, and the results aren't different enough yet, but this is what it looks like so far:  /  (removed the images from here to make this thing a little shorter). Is this just way too stupid, or should I go on? If so, any suggestions? I'm thinking of things like backgrounds etc.  Updates Update 2010/01/30: Version 0.2. Now prettier and with legs, rainbows, and stuff. Examples: Æther:  (source: ) Jeff Atwood:  (source: ) Troggy:  (source: )  Update 2010/01/31: Still version 0.2, the images are (almost) unchanged. But now its on the App Engine for everyone, so go ahead pounding my quota: https://unicornify.appspot.com/avatar/HASH?s=32 Replace HASH by the md5 hash that gets given to gravatar (or any hexadecimal number, really). Don't just copy &amp; paste the above into your browser. I thought this was clear, but looking at the access logs, it looks like I have to explain it. The ?s=32 parameter can be omitted. The only legal values are 32 and 128; defaults to 32. Other parameters are ignored. If you take  and change the substitution line to $(this).attr(&quot;src&quot;, $(this).attr(&quot;src&quot;).replace(/www\.gravatar\.com/, &quot;unicornify.appspot.com&quot;));  you'll see meta the way it has been looking to me for the past days: Full of unicorns. If you just want to replace the identicons, i.e. those users that don't have their own gravatar set up, use this instead: $(this).attr(&quot;src&quot;, $(this).attr(&quot;src&quot;).replace(/(www\.gravatar\.com\/avatar\/)([a-z0-9]*)\?s=(\d+)&amp;d=identicon(.*)$/, &quot;$1$2?s=$3&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2Funicornify.appspot.com%2Favatar%2F$2%3fs%3d$3$4&quot;));  Finally, if you just want to see it once, without any greasy monkeys: Paste this javascript:(function(){$(&quot;img&quot;).attr(&quot;src&quot;, function(){return this.src.replace(/www\.gravatar\.com/, &quot;unicornify.appspot.com&quot;)})})()  into your location bar.  Update 2010/02/14: Version 0.4 I will be deploying a new version later today. Some of you have showcased your own unicorn avatar below using a direct link to unicornify.appspot.com/avatar/.... These images will then show the updated version. If you want to preserve the historical record by keeping the old version, you'll have to host the image somewhere else, or at least change the image URL. The old ones will be available by passing an additional parameter v with the value 3, i.e. https://unicornify.appspot.com/avatar/HASH?s=32&v=3 No new old-version images will be created, but the previously created ones will still be available for a while. Since the unicorns have their own website by now, this is probably the last update I'll be posting on this question.  Update 2010/04/01 Jeff finally rolled out the Unicorn avatars for us all to enjoy.

I went ahead and added my work account to my personal account's   chrome session and then revisited the google auth link from my main SO   account, and this time it gave me the 2 options, and I successfully   added it. However, I don't think it should work this way! You should   get that screen that either allows you to select an existing logged-in   account, or add a new one.      @RudyOnRails Yeah, I agree. Looks like there's a parameter we can pass   along for that, though I'm not sure off the top of my head how much   work it'd be for us to start doing that for the "add login" path.   Could you do me a favor and write up a quick feature-request for this   so we can track it easier? Thanks! – Adam Lear♦ 20 hours ago

I updated the image in my Gravatar but my old picture still shows up.  Is this a cache issue?  Do I need to log out and then log back in?

I no longer use the service that I originally used to register, and would like to change the service I use to log in, or at least add a second account.  Is this possible? How do I change my login provider or associate a backup method to log in?     For more information, see "" in the .

A while ago I lost my password database (and since then do the obvious and have encrypted backups...) and as a result I lost my password to most websites and I was unable to recover one of my emails. I decided just now to see how the SE site works on mobile (I use the app exclusively), but I just realized which email this account is associated with!  Is there any way I can get the password or/and email of this account changed?  If not should I try to use this account for as long as possible, or just start over now? I'm finally at a happy place with my account and it'd be a shame to start over.

It seems a couple minutes ago, a change was applied to the styling of the homepage, with users' rep scores now being much darker (and standing out more):        Compare with the former light grey colouring (image courtesy of ):        Is this intentional? If so, why? It highlights something that's not really relevant, in my opinion.

In , you may see something odd: a peeking duck.    I've just recently uploaded this new profile picture of mine. I checked it after the upload and everything's fine. After a few hours, I opened my profile and there it is, the duck has somehow become afraid of the people viewing it.  Is this a bug, a feature, or is it just the duck?  I am about to re-upload my profile pic, but I've decided to drop first this topic to meta.  And if you're curious,  is the original picture.    ADDITIONAL: I've used the non-gravatar way to upload the picture.  ADDITIONAL 2: The problem only shows in the profile view. No problem in chat, less info profile view, and in the questions and answers.  UPDATE: Re-uploaded picture. Status normal (for now, at least).

Is it possible to transfer my account reputation to anybody? If it is legal, how? Because if I want close or deleted my account.  Note:  If I deleted my account, what would happen to my account points, privileges and badges, etc.?

My main account got messed up, as I tried to fix it things went downhills.   keyboard mess - tried unity --restore and deleting .gconf2*, fail deleted .* in ~, total havoc. Chromium and Firefox crashes etc.   Now, another user account is fully functioning, but I really want my regular username back.  Is there any way to completely wipe the settings for the messed up account or copy the profile from the functioning user?

I was able to change my name on all Stack Exchange sites, but not on the main profile at  itself.  Is there a ways to do the change on  as well?
