I don't know how to take a picture that is drawn on scratch by me or someone else and have it as my pfp. Can someone help me?

I only know a good way to do it on Windows. First, press WIN+SHIFT+S to open Snip n Sketch, then outline the PFP. Now you should see an alert that it has been snipped.

Click on that, then click on the save icon and save as either a JPG or PNG. Now go to your profile and select the file to upload it. If it's too big, open it in Google Drawings and redo the steps.

Right click the project viewer and select “Save image as”, then find the pic and go to your profile and click change

Edit 2: Get ninja'd hehe

1. Draw your profile picture.
   
2. Screenshot it or use cdn2.scratch.mit.edu (if you don’t know how to use it then follow this tutorial by @LegoManiac04).
   
3. Crop or resize it so it is 500x500 pixels or less in size.
   
4. If you need to, compress it so it is 512 KB or less.
   
5. Hover over your profile picture on your profile.
   
6. Select ‘Change’.
   
7. Select the image or gif file you want to change it to.
   
8. You’re done!

YESS WHY DID NO-ONE ELSE SAY THAT

it's so much simpler

I make my profile picture in an editor outside of Scratch, usually Gravit, then exporting as an PNG. After doing that, I usually use an site like Alphabetica's HD icon converter to get an GIF version of the pfp so it's higher definition, or use ezgif.com to do it manually so it's even higher res. I don't have to rescale it because I already made the size of the image 500x500 and the image usually doesn't pass 512KB.

The pfp I had a day ago (most people should remember it unless they've never seen me on the forums) was made by Beet-eggs and I just took an screenshot and followed the same procedure afterwards.

I don't recommend using SVE and exporting as Bitmap if you want to do what I did with high resolution.

Thank you so mush everyone!!

Reported to be closed. OP-Don't worry, reporting in the forums is like sending a text message to a random moderator.
The last time I said that Za-Chary made a joke out of it lol
