Trying to upload your profile picture to steemit? You might of noticed the profile setup only accepts links and not uploads. There is a way however.
You might of also noticed the link generated when you upload a picture to a story. That seems to stay available even if the story was published or not. So, you could copy that link and paste it in your profile setup and voila.
Now the only thing I don't get, is why isn't there an upload button in profile setup? Was it intended? Could really use some answers. In the case it was intended I would suggest that a relation be created between an image and a story and if the story is no more the image gets deleted.
