ADDING A PHOTO TO THE 'More about Me" Box under Profile
Sep 5 2008, 6:02 PM EDT
I can't figure out how to add a photo to the "More about me" Box on the profile page. I have added an image in the upper section of the profile page (with the "edit picture" under it.) and the instructions I have found confirm I am doing this correctly. but I can't figure out how to get that image down to the photo box below. I have checked the "add photo to page" threads and followed the directions. All I am able to manage is the photo I have already loaded. 2  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

Open EasyEdit. Click on the gray box with the text 'Picture Here' in it and then click on 'Edit Photo'. This will allow you to upload any photo you like to the More about Me box. You can also use the 'Add Photo' tool in EasyEdit to add more photos to your profile. 0  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

First you must delete the gray box. It's just a filler. Delete the box, then upload an all new image.

thanks catnip.
may i offer that is NOT intuitive given the instructions of " This will allow you to upload any photo you like to the More about Me box." Especially when the edit photo option in the gray panel above expressly offers edit/update as an option... I will be sure to add this explanation to the help pages we are building for our users of jerkalert.wetpaint.com to help avoid our needing to deal with this question from future users (or at least try to....).
thanks again!

thanks for getting me pointed in the right direction for my question. I just did not know to delete box in order to replace it with a photo/image. Do you find this valuable?
