Issues with Uploading Profile Picture

Users may encounter issues attempting to upload a Profile Picture in Canvas as the page continues to load during this process.

Tips for profile pictures:
Please choose an appropriate picture to represent yourself. Your institution has the right to remove pictures that are not appropriate for a classroom setting.
Images should be square in size to prevent your picture from being resized or distorted.
Files can be any type (.jpg, .png, .gif) or size as long as you have room in your personal files to store the file. Canvas recommends that your profile picture be as small as possible.
