Make sure you spend a little bit of time setting up your profile so that people can get to know you better! It’s easier to follow discussions and find interesting people in conversations.

### Profile picture

You select a profile picture in the _Account_ section under the _Preferences_ tab. The _Preferences_ tab is located on your user page.

### Profile and User Card background

A background image can be set for your profile page and your user card. The user card is the pop-up that appears when someone (on a laptop) clicks on your name or profile picture.

The background images are selected on the _Profile_ section under the _Preferences_ tab.
