I can't seem to change my profile picture. I hover on my name in the top right and click on YOUR PROFILE. It takes me to a very different page that is titled by my username. When I put up a profile picture it makes no change to my actual page. I know I did this one time before and cannot see what I might be doing wrong. HOWEVER, it appears to me that when I click on YOUR PROFILE it is not taking me to the right place. Any help, please. Thanks.

Are you confusing your User Profile page and your IMDb name page?

The name at the top right in the black banner links to your User Account, the ID that lets you browse IMDb with specific options, post messages on the various boards and make lists. It is the equivalent to your Profile here in GetSatisfaction. Any changes you enter there will only affect what is shown when you make lists or post on the message boards; it will not affect your IMDb Name Page.

To change your headshot on the IMDb page, you need to be logged into IMDb Pro on the Account that created/maintains your IMDb Resume Subscription. It is likely the one you use to browse IMDb, but if your manager started the Resume Subscription it will be on the account they used.

I am not in the business, so I don't have a Name page, so I can't give you more detailed advice on how exactly to make the change, but it must be done via the Resume subscription.
