How do I change my profile picture?

To change your profile picture, click on your avatar in the upper right corner of the page, then go to "Info & Bio" section, click on "Remove photo" underneath your avatar. As soon as the picture is gone, you can drag a new one. Don't forget then to scroll down the page and press "Save changes".

If you have a PRO account, you will not be able to change the profile photo yourself. The reason is that you’ve been verified for FIDE ID, accordingly, your data was recorded and transferred to FIDE. To change the data, you need to contact support@worldchess.com and indicate the reason for the change.
