you should disable the ctrl+R shortcut to your email. It may work then.

Great! So, let me make it clear.... In order for me to see it next to playing board I need to do the following (suggested earlier).... 

One way to ensure that you are seeing the most updated pictures is to clear your local cache (this is why Erik suggested ctrl-R, this is the keyboard shortcut to clear the cache on the most popular browsers). However, just because you see or don't see the updated picture doesn't mean everybody else does.

Here is a silly question for most of you: How do I clear my LOCAL CACHE????

Thanks again for everyone's input!

Thank you. I'll try that. I will let you know if I succeeded.
Boicheks
Tried that too... Nothing yet...

Did you clear your local cache?
Boicheks
Define a local cache.....
Alex_M
It's basically your temporary Internet files

Did that twice... Do I need to re-load picture? In what order do I do these operations?

Thanks Alex M for posting that info.This worked for me and I was able to figure it out in Francias!

 

Cheers!

I finally fixed it. I had to go to my Browser's help to figure out how to do it. Thank you all for pointing me in a right direction. Happy 2008!

My pic needs to be rotated.  It's straight in my file...but Chess.com keeps turning it sideways. Anyone help me with that?

What happens if you try taking a screen clipping of the original file? If that ends up rotated as well, then it’s probably a problem with chess.com rather then your file… in that case, maybe try rotating your original picture 90 degrees clockwise and then saving that as your new profile picture. Let me know how it goes.
