Profile pic updates are now live

We’re adding some (literal) character to the default profile pic.

Today we updated the default lightning bolt profile image with some new personalities. These characters have made a cameo or two on Twitch before, and now they’re here to spruce up the old default profile pic. You can choose one of seven new image options under the Profile Picture section of your profile settings. Check them out in action!

Of course, you can still upload your own photo. We increased the maximum file size limit from 3MB to 10MB, so you can be 3.33x more creative.

As always, we’d love to hear your feedback. Let us know what you think @twitch!
