How do I Change My Picture on Twitter Profile

Changing Your Picture from Your Twitter Profile

We all like having updated photos on our Twitter profiles. If you want to put a fresh new photo on your profile, it’s a simple process. Your profile is under your control. You can design it to look exactly the way you want. If you want to change your picture, feel free to do so.

1) Change your photo by going to your profile. Get there by clicking on your name on the left hand side of Twitter’s homepage. Or, you can click on your profile picture in the top right corner and then press ‘view profile’ at the top of the drop down list.
