Thanks, Ed. This is very cool. I’m going to use a portrait of me done by a Artist friend of mine from college. 😃 ---

How come profile pics don’t appear in friends lists? I’m still seeing a question mark in [my friends profile](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php)\*, even though I see [a pic in my profile](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?tab=aboutme&simple=1). \*neener, NEENER, _nee-ner_ ---

Those are probably avatars, which are not enabled on this board. ---

Those would be avatar pics, which we don’t have enabled. ---

You’re welcome to start or post to an existing profile photo thread in MPSIMS, but we probably don’t need to resurrect this thread each time a profile photo is changed. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/members-can-now-post-profile-photos/472659.md?page=3)
