How to set a profile picture on the VC Forums:

1. Click your name at the top of the page.



2. Modify Profile -> Forum Profile



3. In "Personalized Picture", choose "Specify Avatar by URL"



4. Paste the URL link into the text box, and make sure it starts with "http" and not "https". Remove the "s" if needed. The link should end in an image file format like ".jpeg" or ".png", and avoid using links that include "gallery" (instead try to use only the direct image link).



5. At the bottom of the page, press "Change Profile".



Note: Using an external image hosting website like imgur.com is suggested. Upload your image there, get the link, and use that link here on the forums.

Here's the button:


It should look like this once you add your link:



Enjoy!
