Steemit Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
For those of you that are new to Steemit, welcome! If you just can't figure out how to upload profile picture, pictures and videos, you're not alone. This is for you.
How to change profile picture?
Go to "Settings," in the menu which is in the upper right corner.
Once there, you'll see a field for "Profile Picture URL." That is where you paste the URL for the picture you want to appear as your profile picture.
You need an image hosting site ( Create and account if need be)
upload your photo to the image hosting site (like www.imgur.com) and then you can get the photo URL from there.
Just copy and paste it into the field for the profile picture url and you are good to go!
How to upload videos on your blog
- Copy and paste the link of the video from youtube
- Paste directly into your Steemit post, where you normally enter text.
