# Change your profile picture

> Add or change the picture that represents you to your organisations, and frame it in a few gestures.

Your profile picture represents you to the members of your organisations. It is shown in a circle, and you choose how it is framed.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your profile">
    In your account menu, at the top right, choose **My profile**, then click **Edit**.

    <Frame caption="The Edit button of your profile">
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/benevolus/kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez/images/photo_1.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez&q=85&s=2bee142603bd3d99ce777f677434ae50" alt="Photo 1" width="2560" height="1720" data-path="images/photo_1.png" />
    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a picture">
    Click the circle under **Profile picture**, then choose an image from your phone or your computer. Every image is accepted, whatever its size.

      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/benevolus/kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez/images/photo_2.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez&q=85&s=224614e525d8c1d808f0d5bb569fe268" alt="Photo 2" width="2560" height="1720" data-path="images/photo_2.png" />
    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Frame the picture">
    The **Frame the photo** step opens on its own. Drag the picture to place it in the circle. To zoom, pinch the screen, use your mouse wheel or the slider. Then click **Confirm**.

    <Frame caption="Place your face in the circle">
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/benevolus/kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez/images/photo_3.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez&q=85&s=8e3e895d92d13042a9793d8538b4d776" alt="Photo 3" width="2560" height="1720" data-path="images/photo_3.png" />
    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click **Save**. Your picture appears on your profile and in your account menu.

    <Frame caption="The new picture on your profile">
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/benevolus/kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez/images/photo_4.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=kiDOFEKDkmKtBzez&q=85&s=2a422671aef229c0e680c9cb3e8ce017" alt="Photo 4" width="2560" height="1720" data-path="images/photo_4.png" />
    </Frame>
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  To change the framing, choose your picture again: Benevolus only keeps the image you already framed.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Benevolus makes your picture lighter before sending it and keeps none of its metadata: neither where it was taken nor your phone model. An organisation that invites you only sees your picture once you accept its invitation.
</Note>

## Remove your picture

In **Edit**, click the cross at the top of the circle, then **Save**. Your initials are shown instead.

A profile picture or a logo seems offensive or illegal to you? Write to [info@benevolus.ch](mailto:info@benevolus.ch) with the name of the person or the organisation. The Benevolus team removes the image if it breaks our terms of use.
