  • RWTHcontacts: Click How can I change my profile picture? under "About me" in the SelfCare area.

Uploading a picture

Step 1
Click Upload picture under the desired system. To change the picture for multiple systems at once, click Upload picture for more systems.

Below that are the three applications: BlueCard, Intranet, and RWTHcontacts. Under each application, there are two buttons: "Delete image" and "Upload image." If there is no image, the "Delete image" button will be disabled.
