Steemit profile picture upload, NOT using a url ?

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Is it possible to upload a profile picture instead of using a url link ?
I would think this would be a basic function of the site......
Below there is only on option to link to a url. I do not store my pictures
on another site, they are on my computer. I don't see the reason for having to
get, for example a postimage.org account and having my pictures unsecured.
That is what you did in the early 2000's, is Steemit that far behind, or...is there
another reason ?
