  I’ve tried to change my main profile picture multiple times. The new picture that I upload appears in little boxes, but not where I want it to. I want to change the picture that is at the top left corner of my blog that is public. Please help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can upload your gravatar image that will appear next to your username at Dashboard> Users -> My Profile in the dashboard.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/ Do not forget to select a rating for your image.

  Gravatars/blavatars which dsiaply next to your blog’s URL on your Admin bar do not show up instantly after uploading them. Gravatar images are cached and frequently take several days to display after a change. Do not keep uploading!

  See: http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/blavatars/

  For best practices for uploading gravatars, avatars and blavatars scroll down to below the video here: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/01/24/gravatar-avatar-blavatar/

  To enable Gravatar display and hovercard display on your blog go to > Settings > Discussion and scroll way done the page to “Avatars”.
