Can't change my profile picture?

I’ve changed it multiple times in the game client since so it’s odd that this appeared on my forum profile a few weeks ago. Guess the forums use old data of some kind?

The Overwatch Forums’ avatar/player icon “library” being out-of-sync and “behind” the live game’s is a theory some have shared in other related topics - with the theoretical stipulation being that if a player has selected a ”newer” or recently-added player icon in-game, then it may not display here on the forums until the forums eventually “catches up” and has the same player icon(s) available to display…

But, I have tried setting my player icon in-game to some of the very original ones (from Overwatch [1]), but the issue remains (for me at least).

I think since then the profile picture was the one that was selected in the BETA game client? That’s how I remember my last pfp changing, some beta I checked in and suddenly my forum avatar changed, but “forever” was stuck then because I never logged into the beta client since then.

Hmm. Maybe? I have had Overwatch [1] (PC) registered to my Battle.net account since close to release back in 2016. And later, Overwatch [1] and Overwatch 2 for other platforms as well. But, to my knowledge, I have never used a beta version of the game client. And, I did not register for forum access until months after Overwatch 2 launched.
