Your profile photo is the picture that appears on your user avatar disc — the circle in the top-right corner of the Broadstripes navigation bar. When you upload a photo it replaces your initials. Your photo will begin to appear in additional places throughout the app (such as on notes you add) during the second half of 2026. It is not shared or visible outside the app.

​
Upload a profile photo

  1. Click your avatar disc () in the top-right navigation bar to open the user menu.
  2. Select User settings.
  3. Scroll to the Profile photo section.
  4. Click the upload tile labeled Upload a photo, or drag an image file directly onto it.

​
Crop and save your photo

After you select or drop an image, a crop editor opens with a circular preview.
  • Pan: drag the image to reposition it inside the circle.
  • Zoom: drag the Zoom slider to zoom in or out.
When the framing looks right, click Save photo. Your disc updates immediately — no page reload needed. Click Cancel to go back without saving. Avatar crop editor with circular crop preview and zoom slider

​
Replace or remove your photo

Once you have a photo, two buttons appear next to your photo preview:
  • Replace photo () — opens the crop editor so you can select and crop a new image.
  • Remove photo () — shows a confirmation dialog. Click Remove photo to confirm, or Keep photo to cancel. Removing your photo reverts your disc to showing your initials.

​
Your disc color and your role

The color of your avatar disc reflects your highest permission tier in the current project: When you have an uploaded photo, your tier color appears as a thin ring border around the photo. When you are showing initials, the entire disc is filled with the tier color and your initials appear in white.

Admin: remove a user’s profile photo

Super-admins can view and remove any user’s current profile photo from the admin user edit page. After removal the user reverts to showing their initials. Admins cannot upload or crop a photo on behalf of a user — users must do that themselves from their own settings page.
