Hi @Brenda, Welcome to buzztouch! What version of buzztouch are you trying to create an app with? v1.4, v1.5 or v2.0? And by picture, do you mean an icon for your app, or an image that will be used in the app itself? Mark

Hiya @Brenda. I think i had the same problem when i started. There are two possible ways i can think of; First way, is to look at the top of the Control Panel, where you will finf "Files", and click on that. It takes you to a screen where you find on the left hand side (in a neat row), things like; All Files (0) Documents (0) Images (0) etc etc Below that you also find "Upload File" Below this, you find a drop down menu, where you may possibly specify type of file/destination. And then below that, you find a "+" sign slightly to the right, and then "upload" Click on the + sign first, which should give you the menu which takes you to where you may have your images waiting to be loaded, and then i suspect you would be able to follow on from there. I hope i have made it logical enough to follow. I have received a lot of help here from people, and only glad to be of assistance myself. Omoba

A second way i can think of, is to choose say any of the screen "plugin", maybe Menu List Simple. Click on this once you have chosen it, which then opens it up for you. Once opened, looked down amongst the list of options, and you will find "Screen Background Image" somewhere there. Once this opens, you will find options for "Small Device" and "Large Device". Below that, you should find "image File Name" as an option. Click on this, and you find it takes you back to the same screen options i described above, with the "upload" and "+" and then just follow the steps above. For me, it took a while before i could figure out that the "+" was actually clickable. Once i figured that out, everything kinda flowed from then on. Cheers

Hi Brenda, Solid advice from @Omoba! Give it a shot and see what happens! As for your Profile picture, click on your name in the upper right-hand corner of the website, then click on Public Profile, and in the section where your avatar goes, just click on the field that would contain the path to your image (to the left of the browse button). That should bring up Finder or Explorer, depending on your OS. Mark
