Your profile image, also called a user icon or avatar, is the image that appears next to your name wherever you engage on The Mighty, such as on your posts and comments.

The Mighty provides everyone with a default image when they create a new account. You are welcome to update your profile image to something that represents you.

You can update your profile image in either a web browser or in the Mighty mobile app.
