Uploading and Deleting Photos
Adding photos to your Roommates.com profile is entirely optional, but we highly recommend it, as it can increase your chances of connecting with the perfect roommate. As such, we make uploading, editing, and deleting photos a snap on Roommates.com!
When you first create your Roommates.com profile, you'll be prompted to upload a photo of yourself (which serves as your profile photo), as well as photos of your place (if you're offering a room as a "Have a Room" user). If you skip uploading photos while setting up your account, you're always free to upload photos at a later point using the procedure outlined below.
To Upload a Photo:
- Login to your account.
- Click on the Menu Icon (three horizontal lines) in the upper right.
- To upload profile pictures of yourself, click "Edit My Profile".
- Click "Choose Another Photo" below your main profile picture, select the appropriate photo from your device, and click "Open".
- To add additional profile pics, scroll to the bottom, click the photo icon with a "plus" symbol in the "Additional Profile Photos" section, select the appropriate photo from your device, and click "Open".
- Click "Save" at the bottom once you've finished uploading photos.
- To upload photos of your available room/home, click "Edit Rent & Home Details".
- Scroll down to the "Property Photos" section.
- Click the photo icon with a "plus" symbol, select the appropriate photo from your device, and click "Open".
- Click "Save" at the bottom once you've finished uploading photos.
