The one on your profile is your profile picture. Change your avatar. Also be sure to press "save changes". Also, XDA takes a little bit to load the new image and signature. Hope I helped.

How do I change my location?

On my profile I want my location to show up...how do I do this?? Not a noob when it comes to forums but I have looked all over! Tried searching but my terms were too generic no matter what I put in (plus I'm lazy). Can anyone help me with this?
There still seems to be a bug in the forum software. Normally you should be able to configure this in your UserCP (User Control Panel), but the menu entry for this group of settings does not show up anymore.
But you can use this link directly in order to adapt your settings.

you are abusing others will and ability to help
the fact that you are lazy isn't justifying that
in few last days there were about 6 threads about changing location
so get your lazy ass up and read
Whatever dude, I looked and did search. Maybe they should fix this bug and no one would have to ask. Oh and thank you Foo.

thnx for the info... works great i now have a little flag in my posts
HI I was going to open a new thread about this. But fortunately i opened this thread. Thanks for the info.
Looks like this can be done without magic links.
At the top of the Forum Click "Quick Links" > "Edit your details".
Thanks

There is an avatar and a profile picture, profile pic is for your profile while avatar is for the forum. Look around the User CP
How many posts is needed to be able to add an avitar, I've searched and checked all forums I could and really haven't. Been able to find the answer I'm looking for
Nevermind I found out what I needed to know
what size i need?

[Q] Anyone know how to receive notifications from xda in email?

I used to have my xda account set up so that when somebody replied,quoted or thanked me i would received an email,but i don't get them anymore because i probably changed something unknowingly.
Does anybody know how to set up the right settings for that?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone?

Ok i turned on the settings that should have enabled email notifications but still no notifications.
What setting turns them on?
I thought that i would get more help than this on here.
Are you talking about when you subscribe to a thread and what not?
If so, it is in settings>notifications. Cant remember the exact buttons to look for, but it is in there.

Please don't be a Debbie-Downer. It is kind of a turn-off when people see your request and then see you complaining about not getting help (especially when others have already tried to help). Rather than complain make a new post or ask again. Sometimes it doesn't hurt to be patient. Lol I have a question out there that hasn't been answered in months (granted I found my answer another way)! Sometimes people don't know the answer or assume that it's already been answered when they see multiple replies.
As to answering your question... Setting up notifications didn't work for me in either the XDA app or in Tapatalk. In order to set them up I had to go to the actual website. I'm using the XDA 2013 Beta so my instructions will be for XDA 2013 Beta.
If you'd like to switch to XDA 2013 Beta go to the very bottom left of your screen. There is a dropdown box, click it and select "XDA 2013 Beta".
Now on to the rest.
In the top right corner or your screen select the "Control Panel" (directly below your username).
On the left side of your screen you should see a gray box that says "Settings and Options". Below that is a menu option titled "Edit Options". Select it.
Once you're in the "Edit Options" section scroll down past the first little section and you'll see the section "Messaging and Notifications". You will see many sub-options, almost all relate to different email/messaging options. Play around with the ones you want and presto! You are good to go!

I already did that,i tried all settings in "Messaging and Notifications" before asking this question.And im on Beta 2013.Still no notifications.
I have an account on Phandroid.com and every time someone replies,thanks me or comments i get an email.
I think i had that on XDA before but not any more,it would be great if i could get it on here.
Does anyone actually receive emails for replies on xda or xda don't have this option?

K. That's something else entirely. When you subscribe to a thread it gives you the option to be notified. There are several options in the dropdown list, I normally do immediately for the important threads. I get emails all the time.
There isn't currently a system that notifies you when someone quotes you or thanks you though.
Good luck!

Recent Visitors

Why can I not view recent visitors in my own profile? Setting is set to everyone.
And why is the frown smilie the first on the list?
Edit
Forget about frown smilie being first i normally do quick reply
Really, no one has any idea about this?
Moved to About XDA.
I think it's because you haven't had many profile views yet, because I'm able to view your recent visitors fine.
At the moment, it's showing that you have 20 page views and my username is the only one showing at the moment.

Is it definitely set to "Everyone"?
If so, try switching to a different option, saving the changes and then change back again.

Switched all options to friends only then back to everyone. Even logged out an cleared cache, still dont work for me.
I think there's a bug in NomadSpin's profile. There are no other sections visible underneath "Mini Statistics", not even empty ones, which I don't see on anyone else's profile. I would try the "I want to report a technical problem with XDA Forums or Portal" form to be found here. Hope this helps.
Dont know if this might have anything at all to do with it but when I originally created this account I entered my email as @google.com rather than @gmail.com (was a long day). Kinda forget how I fixed that, couldnt validate obviously so came back and changed it somehow. (its been another long day)

That shouldn't affect it... I don't see anything untoward on your profile though, so I'm not sure what's wrong...
I don't leave a trail on profiles I visit though - has anyone other than kid visited the profile?
When I visited it yesterday the section "Recent Visitors" wasn't there at all, but now it is and I see myself as the "last 1 visitor" and "This page has had 26 visits".

I could be mistaken, but your looking at your own profile to get to recent visitors maybe? That triggers that you was most recent to view.

No, I'm looking at NomadSpin's profile (now stands at 32 visitors with the last 3 named). If I visit my own profile I don't show as a visitor.
I can see the last 4 visitors out of 33 somebody musta fixed it. Thank you who ever you are
Looks like i may have spoken to soon. Now have 37 visitors an can stil only view the last 4, which appears to be the same 4 as before
When I or a number of mods view your profile, it won't be logged, as we chose to disable the "mark" from being left
It's like that given you posted in about xda, that's where most of the views are coming from
I left my mark!

Sneaky buggas you are
I see you kickofthecat
Same is the case with this profile http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=5121618
Nothing but mini statistics is visible similar to Nomad's.

Why is my profile picture not showing up in posts?

I set up a profile picture yesterday but its not showing up in posts, what's going on? How do I fix it?
You need to set it as your avatar for it to show up next to your posts. The profile picture is only seen if someone visits your profile
