How to upload a profile picture<\/strong><\/p>\n

Uploading a profile picture to your Zoom account can be useful if you need to disable your camera during a Zoom session, perhaps due to network issues, as people will still be able to see your image without needing to have your webcam on.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Click on you initials in the top right of the Zoom app (if you are not already signed in, then please see how to sign into the Zoom app<\/a>)<\/li>\n
  2. In the menu that appears, click “Change my Picture”<\/li>\n
  3. A web page will open and prompt you to sign into your Otago Zoom account (if already signed in, skip to step 6<\/em>). Click the “Sign in with SSO<\/strong>” option part way down the screen (not the email address and password).<\/li>\n
  4. If prompted, enter “otago<\/strong>” as the Company Domain, then click continue.<\/li>\n
  5. Enter your normal Otago staff\/student username and password.<\/li>\n
  6. You will now be on your Zoom profile page, click “Change” under the grey avatar.<\/li>\n
  7. In the pop-up window click “Upload” (note the guidelines at the top around acceptable file types and max. size)<\/li>\n
  8. In the file explorer\/finder window that appears, locate the picture you want to use saved on your computer, select it and click open.<\/li>\n
  9. Adjust the framing of the picture to your preference then click “Save”<\/li>\n
  10. Your new profile picture is now saved and will appear in Zoom when you turn your camera off.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Below are screen shots of the above process:<\/p>\n
