Your title insinuates you can have a custom avatar. Got to the end of the video and left hella disappointed.

[@theothu]

Thanks mate, I thought about this when I should sleep so I didn’t have to wait anyway :) 👍

[@jamesdunn708]

Thank you, now I know why I can't change my avatar. So many threads online suggest you can but ultimately they end up being changing your profile picture.

[@ic_rustlandcoco4041]

Thank you for this homie. Now I won't have to use those boring avatars anymore

[@prestonroulette5667]

Ya. Those other 1s are boring

[@m9dness268]

He lied as a video. Its a clickbait. He did show how to change your pic prof but didnt do a method or technique to have a “custom” avatar. By that word “custom” means whatever image to be your avatar and for him that meant to go to the store which AGAIN existed for years and you guys still didnt know about it idk how. If you have a prob just see videos on yt to solve it its not that hard just two click and badabing badaboom mission complete.

Can you tell me how to chamge my cover image from my phone i been known about this but they updated the ps app so i dont know how to change my cover image from phone

[@semicomprehensiveguide]

I'm making a video on this right now but for now the tl:dr is go to the controller icon menu and at the top there will be your username and pfp. Select that and then at the top under your pfp should be an option to edit profile. Select that and sign in. One of the options listed should be to change your profile picture and avatar

is there an option to put the Profile pic over the avatar?
because in games like Rocket league you can only see the Avatars? but then i have seen some Custom ones...

[@semicomprehensiveguide]

No unfortunately there's no way to make your own images your avatar due to PlayStation's player safety policy. The custom ones you've seen are probably the profile pictures you can get in the store.

So it's impossible to change your profile picture on the PlayStation itself? Even if you've had multiple profile pictures uploaded on your playstation in the past?

Not much work to do tbh

You can do it through the app or website through your account and it’ll link

[@semicomprehensiveguide]

Does it give you this message when you go to the settings or when you select the picture to change? Keep in mind in order to add a custom PFP you do need a completed PSN account associated with your user
