I can't get rid of the generic thin blue avatar frame.
I can't get rid of the thin blue frame that is on my avatar right now to the left of this comment. Even though I buy avatar frames, it still gets put around my avatar and shows through the frame I have purchased, or goes over it. It's spoiling my attempt to make a nice profile page. How can I get rid of it! This is so annoying!

Hey, the avatar frame you (and i) use is transparent and doesn't cover anything, that's the problem.

You can only cover the default blue/green frames if you use another solid colour avatar frame.
For example this one: https://store.steampowered.com/points/shop/c/avatar/cluster/1/reward/108677

Set your chat status to "invisible", that gets rid of the online status that the colors represent.

I see the frame. I have others but I want to use the sparkles and that would be two frames, so it won't work will it? I bought the "transparent sparkles" as shown, without a frame and that's how I expected to use it. When shown how it would look, it was sparkles only, no frame. I guess it's a case of false advertising. I saw your profile and apparently you do what the player below(Crazy Tiger) has suggested. Your profile is amazing and so are your screenshots! Thanks again. :)

Thanks for answering. I didn't know that's what that frame was for. I didn't know it was connected to your online status. Anyway, your suggestion works and thank you SO much! My only concern is that my friends will not know I'm online and that I won't get updates as to what game they're playing etc., but I'll see. I'm just so glad to get rid of that blue frame! Wow, another amazing profile. I would love to learn how to do that. Your profile is awesome with that background running all through it, striking!. Thank you for solving the problem. Cheers!

Yes you can only use one frame at a time.
only alternative might be this, it's a coloured frame AND sparkles:

also available in another colour variety:

okay nevermind, i just tried the above frames again and they don't properly allign anymore and look super awful.
so i guess you can only keep using your current frame with offline mode. :crysusie:
