The settings pages were recently revamped. happy.png Visit https://www.chess.com/settings/themes instead. Choose the "Custom" theme, and under "Background", choose "Custom (upload)". Or, you can choose from one provided! grin.png

      it would be nice to change only profile page background separately from playing hall background,you know it is distracting when you are playing,

I suspect the resolution and image size need to be scaled correctly for the image to be successfully accepted as the background, however I have no idea what those are supposed to be.
