Ever since this update has came out for some reason my profile picture looks like it’s dimmed. Is anyone else having that issue? It may just be a profile picture, but I don’t like the fact that it looks like it’s dimmed.
#Custom Gamerpic is grey/faded when uploaded from the Xbox App on iOS

it isn't an animated gif or anything and just downloading a pic from insta shouldn't result in a corrupted picture (though you could try just taking a screenshot of the picture and then using the screenshot instead of the downloaded pic?

So you've been uploading from phone? Have you tried uploading from the console?
I'm not sure the Xbox app on PC allows custom gamerpic upload right now

Em I'm flummoxed... looking at the original picture, a totally normal colorful baywatch picture, vs the resulting profile picture the only thing that is stuck in my head is like back last century when the color palette for a gif got broken - so all the pixels are in the right spots but hte actual colors aren't what you'd expect. lmao, idk

It's possible there's a bug in the uploader he used, but I would need to know exactly what he used to upload it, and if it's the phone app, which version.

The way I’ve been uploading custom profile pictures to my account. I’ve been doing it from my phone for years. I take a screenshot of something that I like and I do it from my phone. It didn’t start doing it until this new update came out. Sorry if I keep on mentioning the update..

Is your phone iOS or Android?

@glacial pawn tagging you here, if I get updates I'll use this thread.

@lament torrent , @whole sentinel Are you still seeing this issue? And KJ81611 says that the image fixed itself over time after upload. Would be interesting to know if you're seeing something similar.
What would also help is if you could share the original images you're trying to upload (can DM to me) and the version of the Xbox App you're using.
