How to uptate your profile pic?

You have to delete System32.

What's that?frown

The site uses special cookies that your computer messes with, so you have to delete/disable a program called System32 in order to keep your PC from interfering. (Don't worry, it's not important for anything else, it's just a thing left behind by bug-testers at Windows.)

Here's a reliable step-by-step guide:

STEP 1

Close all applications that are running on your computer.

STEP 2

Double-click the “Computer” icon on the Windows desktop to open “Windows Explorer.”

STEP 3

Double-click the icon labeled “Local Disk C:” and then enter the folder labeled “Windows.”

STEP 4

Select the folder labeled “System32” by clicking on it.

STEP 5

Press the “Shift” and “Del” keys together and click “Yes” on the “Delete Folder” confirmation dialog box to delete the "System32" folder. Click “Yes to All” on any “File Delete” dialog boxes that you encounter during the file deletion process.

 

Enjoy your profile picture!

FFS sake, Sent. Why would you ever even...

*sigh* Just...do not delete system32. It has really, really important files in it and unless your idea of fun is slow reinstalls...just...do not do that -.-

@EndMaster   Seto is telling lies in this thread and trying to confuse this poor newb. You really should delete his posts. I'm a computer expert and Sent had the right of it.

Its true...every word. I plead guilty of this crime.

Seriously though, why, Sent...why? XD

Seto, she posted this shit in the Bob Ross thread. She's beyond help! I was doing everyone a favor, especially her!

System32 is a buggy, potentially dangerous program, and your ignorance of the subject is appalling! I bet you can't even bring yourself to delete old Word Docs for homework!

...you really should be reading the Help & Info section 

*coughs and shoves this link at you*

Anyways, to update your profile picture, just follow these steps...

1) Go to "My Stuff" and click on "Pictures" 

2) Click "Upload New Picture"

3) If it tells you your picture was too big...either resize your picture or get another one.

4) Go to "Profile" which is also under "My Stuff"

5) Underneath "Avatar Photo" choose the picture you uploaded

6) After you've selected the picture, click "Update My Account and Profile"

And that's it. It's absurdly easy.

I did that too, but it doesn't work UNTIL you delete System32. The PC just interferes. Luckily, you access this site from Ouya's OS app, which doesn't have a System32.

Huh. Didn't I buy that back in like...2014 or something?

Helping a newbie

Yeah. The Ouya is a very durable machine. They'll be around in perfect working condition in 2105.

Ah, I forgot you switched to Mac, which also lacks a System32. Honestly, that's the only advantage Mac seems to have...

I have 3 things I use actually...
Though, my Alienware's charger port is fucked up and the person who's supposed to fix it can't get to it until a little later.
I currently use my Asus ROG Gen 2 more. :P

My Asus is my baby.

I love my G74S

This person hasn't been online for days now. I think... I think they actually deleted it.

I've done my duty. Nobody responds to the last post in a Bob Ross thread with "How to uptate profile pic?" without being either a Nard who had some serious learning to do (And, I mean, this'd be a god start.) or a troll. (In which case, this is really funny.)

Remember those numbers! We'll see if it ever changes.
