How to set your profile picture from facebook as your STEEM profile picture

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

Unlike facebook you can not directly upload an image as your profile picture.

Instead you have to paste your pictures URL into the specified box in settings.
To create a URL for the profile picture you want you can simply POST the picture on your blog first.
This creates a URL.

I will run you through a step by step guide to transferring your profile picture from facebook to STEEM.

  1. Go to your profile picture on facebook and click options on the bottom right hand corner of the picure

  2. click download

  3. On your steem blog click POST

  4. Where it says "Insert images by dragging & dropping, pasting from the clipboard, or by selecting them." click on selecting them

  5. Go to your downloads folder and select your profile picture you downloaded from facebook

  8. Go to STEEM settings and paste into the "profile picture URL" box
