Profile picture bug

[stillinkt]

I have recently updated my profile picture and it now just shows a grey square in the friends list and in game? Anyone know how to fix this? it also sometimes uses random people in games profile pictures and puts it where mine should be?

That sounds like Steam being drunk (as it usually is). Is this happening in the client? If so, try restarting. Should that not help, I think your only option is to wait it out.

For the record, your profile picture looks fine to me. This is what I see.

You don't need to care as everybody else sees the picture just right.

What is it supposed to look like?

[stillinkt]

I have just replaced it with snother and it workes think it may be due to the file size going to check

No matter what size i made the JPEG it still would not work although i managed to fix it by changing the file format to a PNG and that seems to have worked. I will leave this thread up incacse anyone else has the problem as i know its common.
