SUGGESTION
so i will suggest they make it cool and easy for steemit users to upload their profile pictures directly from the website and they should also make use of profile picture notification to remind users they need to update their profile pictureebook that they do notify you on your wall to update your profile pictures and they should also make it  easy to  upload oour profile pictures with both website and their application and not with steemit application alone.![bandicam 2018-01-04 19-29-11-105.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1515400071/fozv3iujebvus85mdvys.jpg)

And they can also make use of notification on profile pictures, reminding their users to change their profile pictures for a better recognition from other users. a good example is that of facebook.![bandicam 2018-01-04 19-28-30-893.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1515400259/vydqdedniefhhzh8ktrm.jpg)

BENEFITS
-	its makes it easy for the users to change their profile picture easily from the website
-	profile picture notification lets the new users know or remind them to upload their profile picture for recognition
-	uploading from the website will help those using pc to login to steemit to upload their profile pictures since they cannot access esteem on pc.
