Change Your Facebook Profile Photo

14.03.2012
I've made no secret of my distaste for Facebook's interface, which is equal parts messy, confusing, and outright maddening.

For example, suppose you want to change your profile photo. Seems like the kind of option you might find in, say, Account Settings. Nope, not there. Privacy Settings? Nuh-uh.

Well, maybe if you click your name to open your profile, you'll find the option there. Let's see... no, there's nothing that says "change profile photo." Oh, here we go, I'll bet if you click Update Info...

Another strike. What's that, now, four?

This is yet another of Facebook's ridiculously obscure settings that's actually hiding in plain sight. (Previous offender: .) To change your profile photo, do this:

1. Open your profile by clicking your name, either on the left side (below the Facebook logo) or the right edge of the toolbar up top.
