Custom Image - How to upload custom images for profiles and goals.

October 16, 2016 18:58

You can either select a default image or images/pictures can be uploaded for a child's profile and for every goal created.

To update a goal image, select the Edit Goal icon or button.
To update a child's image, first navigate to the Edit Profile tab toward the bottom of the parent's window.
Click on the image to edit it, then select Browse under the Upload a Custom Image window.

Select the folder on your hard drive where the image/picture is stored, then select the picture and click open. Note the maximum size for the picture is 8 megabytes.
Click Upload, next to the Browse button.
A pop up will appear stating 'Your Request was Processed Successfully!', click OK, then click Close Window.
Click Save, which will open a pop up saying your update was successful. Click OK and you're done!

Hint - Your kids can upload specific images of the goals they are saving for.

Go to Amazon.com or online retailer where you normally browse and find the product your child is interested in.
Right click on the product image and click on Save Image As.
Save image to your Desktop for easy reference or other folder of your choosing.
That's it. Now follow the steps above to upload image.

Charlie - one additional thought... your picture may be too large. Try reducing the size and upload again. The maximum file size is 8MB.

Kasandra - yes, you can change a child's picture at any time. To update a child's image, first navigate to the Edit Profile tab toward the bottom of the parent's window, then click on the image to update it. Or a child can to this themselves from within their profile. We've added some additional information to the help file to make it more clear. Hope this helps!
