# Can You Change or Add a Profile Picture to a Record

Yes! You can upload a custom profile picture for any person or company record in just a few clicks.

## Overview
**Yes, you can add or change a profile picture on any record.** By default, records display initials or a placeholder avatar. You can replace this with any image from your computer by clicking on the avatar in the record detail view.
* Works for **People**, **Companies**, and **Deals** records
* Simply **click the avatar** on the record detail page
* Upload any image file (PNG, JPG, etc.)
* The change is **instant** — no save button needed
## Step 1 — Open the Record
Navigate to your records list (e.g. **People**) and click on the record you want to update.
Click on a record in your list to open its detail page.
## Step 2 — Click on the Avatar
On the record detail page, look at the **profile picture area** in the top-right corner. By default it shows the person's initials in a circle. Hover over it and click to open the file picker.
Hover over the avatar area and click to upload a new picture.
## Step 3 — Select an Image
A file picker dialog will open. Browse to the image you want to use and select it.
Select an image file from your computer.
**Tip —** Square images work best for profile pictures. The image will be cropped to a circle in the display.
## Step 4 — Picture Updated Instantly
Once you select the file, the profile picture is uploaded and updated immediately. You will see an **"Avatar updated"** confirmation message.
The new profile picture is applied instantly with an "Avatar updated" confirmation.
**Note —** The new profile picture will also appear in the records list view, making it easier to visually identify contacts at a glance.
## Changing the Picture Again
To replace an existing profile picture, simply **click on the current avatar** again. The same file picker will open and you can choose a different image. The new picture replaces the old one immediately.
You can change the profile picture as many times as you like.
## Frequently Asked Questions

**What image formats are supported?**
You can use common image formats such as PNG, JPG, and GIF.
