Profile pics (again)

Morning all.  I’m aware there has been threads on the subject of profile pics before, but they’re all quite old and the advice/technology may have changed.  I’ve had the same profile pic since I first registered to use CT years ago.  At that time one had to use a desktop rather than a tablet to add a profile pic, so here I am sat with both desktop and iPad trying to give my profile a new spin by adding a different photo, and failing miserably.

I log in, go to CT, go to the CT profile page, select Edit and get taken straight to my main profile page (contact details, outfit details, bookings etc.).  Even the Edit your details link on the main profile page doesn’t lead anywhere.  I’ve tried several times on both devices to no 

Does anyone have any ideas?  Am I doing something wrong, or is the site just not working?

Little Woodham photos didn’t load!  I tried it as a test but I couldn’t delete the post either as no edit button.

So far I've not been able to change my profile photo via my phone and I've always reduced the photo size first 600x800. Just seeing now if it works and if there is a delay. I can post other photos successfully from phone files. It still doesnt look as though the system can cope.

I have just supposedly changed mine. Using an iPad iOS 15.4.1. The photo does have to be less than 2MB, otherwise it is rejected and remember to go down to the bottom of the page and save. 
Although it’s certainly changed in my profile ( I have been back a couple of times to check) it has not flowed through to here yet and the old one is still showing.

Edit Cleared the cache and its updated.

Bandgirl  - Sorry I can't help with ipad but found I could still manage to change profile pic the old way using laptop and Paint – reducing photo to 600 pixels, saving then clearing browser history and log in CAMC. As someone said remember to save profile changes by scrolling to bottom. Also added photo (600 pixels) to post.

I changed mine on an iPad not long ago and it worked OK.

(It’s the same pic but cleaned up in case anyone wonders).

Thanks Steve, I’ll have another try at some point.  If I could get the Edit button on my CT profile to link to my CT profile and not my main membership profile it would be a start.  It doesn’t matter whether I use iPad or desktop pc, the outcome is the same.  The only things I could update is my contact details/preferences and outfit.  Nothing relating to CT at all.

BG, I find it only works for me if I use My Profile at the top of the page followed by My Profile Info. The My Profile on the right doesn’t lead to the same place.
