Hi Babsie... There's no way to transfer photos from your personal gallery to your profile, at least that I have discovered at this point anyway. Don't know what happened to your profile pic that was up there, but you will need to reload it from your computer again.
Go to the purple menu at the top of the page. Put your mouse over "Community" and a menu will drop down. Leave your mouse on "My Profile Page" and a box will slide out to the right that says "Edit My Profile". Click that!
It will go to an "Edit Your Details" box. There will now be tabs across the top. Click on "Portrait". A drop-down menu will be next to where your pic will go. Select "Upload New Profile Image". Browse on your computer and click on the photo you want to use, then click "Update".
The "Select Image From Gallery" option only allows us to pick from the site's default avatars.
You can edit your profile info by clicking the "About Me" tab also.
Hope this helps!
Best wishes... Catherine
