So I have an IMDb page (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm5891005/), but it says I have to get IMDb Pro in order to edit it.
Is there any way around this? I'd like to at least have my picture up or something, or to be able to add more of my credits. Haha.
Thanks

You can edit the page and add data without needing an IMDBPro subscription - there is a big yellow Edit page button at the bottom of the page.

There are a few thing you need IMDB Pro for, like adding contact details, photographs or a resume, but these are optional extras - the core of IMDB can be edited by anyone with a free, verified user account

Yes, that's me. I cannot find how to change the main photo on my home page, or how to delete a second entry (Robin Hawdon II) despite all the 'help' advice.

I have to say that IMD is incredibly outdated and hard to use. Far too complex, with the suggested edit techniques and buttons either difficult or impossible to find. My own website, hosted by Wordpress, makes things much easier. Why can't an international site like IMD be as simple?

Robin you need to post a new thread. This old one has been replied to, and as such an IMDb employee will not notice it.
See above to start a new post

It looks like an old publicity photo left from after the service was closed. From what I understand the photo can't be deleted but can certainly be replaced by a IMDbPro subscription.

How do I add photos to my IMDb page?
You will have to wait for an official IMDb staff member to confirm this.

Hi Robin,

jff is correct, the photo can be replaced on your name page but not removed. I've now merged your new name page into the existing one.

Regards,
Will

Thanks Will, but I can't even replace it. Are you able to do it with this one?

Hi Robin -

You will need to upload the image directly through your IMDbPro Resume Account, for detailed instructions on how to upload a new image, please see the following guide: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdbpro/manage-your-imdb-page/how-do-i-add-and-edit-images-on-my-imdb-page/GYJLH267T2DMYJ53?ref_=helpart_nav_6#

Note that you can also remove images from your Resume account.
