Not sure most of my photos are from my phone or download from Facebook... but you're profile pictures are fine Note: after I have taken a picture I usually edit them with color brightness Etc

I was checking it out as I read your last post... I figured it out!!!! You need longer arms or a selfie stick No sure try to adjust colors or tint.. it may compensate for the smaller crop Or try this when you go to load your profile picture it puts you in a box trying to expand that box pull from the corners hopefully that helps

It loads my picture fine .. in the one on my profile you can see New Zealand on my cap but when I select it for my main profile I end up having to crop my photo . I guess there is a preset photo size . Thanks for your help .. I need a web cam .. selfie stick or a photographer

But back then cameras and phones were just invented and I am still trying to work the kinks out.

Take the picture in a square format. Not sure about other phones but my iPhone has a setting for that.
