Cannot add my photo for my Candy Crush Saga game profile picture

I know the steps to change my CCS game profile picture. However, it seems I can only select a CCS game avatar and I don’t have any option to add my picture. Is there no option to add a personal photo instead of a CCS game avatar?

  • King doesn't allow users to change profile picture anymore. So, new users are going to stuck with default profile picture that is given to you by the system when you were creating an account. Old users are also going to stuck with the profile picture they changed last/recently. As for those users who used their Facebook account while they were creating an account, I'm not sure whether the profile picture will be changed or not when you've set a profile picture on Facebook. (I'm using King account, so.)

    Thanks for your response. That's pretty much what I figured but thought I would ask in case I was missing something. I never linked my Facebook to CCS as I never felt like that was a good idea. I did see in a couple posts where players who have linked FB to CCS said their CCS profile picture would automatically be updated if they updated their FB profile picture. I don't know if that’s true or not now. Thanks again!

    Logically, your Facebook-linked King account's profile picture should be changed if you changed your Facebook profile picture but I'm not quite sure because as I've said, I didn't use my Facebook account when I created King account. I used email. So.

    In my opinion, King should let users to change their profile picture (not only in game, but also in this forum too). My current avatar is Yeti. I think it's much better than some ugly characters. Thank God. 😂😂😂 Still, I want to change it to something I like. But they decided not to let users to do that. That's pretty much annoying. And also, King itself doesn't seem to be taking user opinions seriously. If they do, well, I hope they could see this comment.

    I agree. I think King should go back to letting users upload pictures. I would predict some users uploaded inappropriate pictures so King took the option away. Instead of penalizing all users, King should have just dealt specifically with the people who uploaded something inappropriate, if that's what happened. I don’t care for the goofy avatars. I doubt King pays much attention to comments. There are some things in Candy Crush Saga that don't make sense.

    You can use another King game that does allow you to change your picture to change it in candy crush as it is tied to your account

    Just note that most other King games have a slightly different scale for the image and it will need some slight adjustments to match how it would have looked in Candy Crush. The one I use needed some padding on all 4 sides.

    Normal for Candy Crush

    Other game import to Candy Crush

    You will have to view the image to see the difference but I had to pad the top and sides.

    Thank you for the tip, that's good to know. I think I still have Candy Crush Soda on an older tablet. I'll have to check that out. Thanks again!

    Well, sadly no success. On my older tablet (that connects to the Internet just fine) I tried Candy Crush Soda and Candy Crush Jelly. Neither game was logged into King. So, I tried logging in on both games and received the same error message for both; "There was a connection error. Try again in a bit." I tried later and same result. Since I couldn't get any further, I wasn't able to tell if uploading a personal picture for the King profile is even possible with these two versions of Candy Crush. Does anyone know for sure if CC Soda and CC Jelly allow a player to upload a personal picture for their profile? (Instead of selecting a goofy avatar.) Then I'll know whether to spend anymore time on this. Thanks.

    I used blossom blast last time I think. That does not mean you will be able to connect. The other two as far as I know still allow unique avatars.

    Thank you for the tip. Your comment made me think that I could try and change profile picture in other games released by King. I changed my profile picture in Bubble Witch 2 game and it worked. I could change my profile picture and it's not Yeti (my default profile picture) anymore.

    But then, later I found out you can only change once. Let's say I want to change profile picture now, I tried to change it, but I can't anymore. So, I think you have to make sure that you need to choose your profile picture carefully. Otherwise, you will stuck with something you don't like again. If you find out any game that let you change profile picture, please let me know too. 😁😁😁

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
