3. Enter your Full Name in the Search input box and click on Search: 

4. Since have already updated my photo using this method, you can see my image is already visible. In your case it might be blank

5. Now click on the search result. The Edit Image button becomes visible. Click on this button and you will be greeted with Edit Image window as shown:

6. Now click on Select New Image button and you will be able to browse to the location where you have the image you want to apply. Select the image after navigating to it.

  2. Hello, I read your blog occasionally, and I own a similar one, and I was just wondering if you get a lot of spam remarks? If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane, so any assistance is very much appreciated.
