I am not able to choose my posters from films I have worked on—I did when I had a free trial of IMDB pro, but now that that has expired, my posters are completely random. I would like my posters to reflect my latest editing work. Please advise

No Pro.... No Photo.
It's that simple.
I have to pay for pro to maintain a picture as a main photo for my Actor Page.
When you reach a certain status in the industry, which IMDb does not divulge what that is, photos are automatically on your page. You have to be of a certain interest. I Imagine it is a certain STARmeter number level where photos are automatically uploaded to your page from the various title projects you are involved in.

Thanks for this, and of course that makes sense. But does this apply for film posters too? (I don't care about having my actual photo on IMDB)

Hi, anne alvergue.

The "Known For" titles (posters) displayed at the top of your IMDb page are automatically chosen through a complex weighting system. According to the "Known For title selection" guide, you may choose those titles manually if you are an IMDbPro member.

I hope this helps

You can change poster Images for your films on the titles page without Pro.
