You would think after driving 3 days straight, from Canada to Austin, TX, that Dan Mangan would be more fit to hit the bed than to hit the stage.  You would be wrong.  This Canadian didn’t drive all that way to disappoint.  Dan and his band put on an amazing show, complete with singalongs and a trip into the crowd.

UPDATE: How to force TwitPic to pull your Twitter profile picture

Twitpic Logo

Back in January I posted about forcing TwitPic to pull your Twitter profile picture. It seems that this method is no longer viable.

Back in March, Noah from TwitPic left a comment saying that they were working on a fix. Hopefully the guys from TwitPic have fixed the problem.

How to force TwitPic to pull your Twitter profile picture

UPDATE: THIS SEEMS TO NOT BE WORKING ANYMORE.

I am a pretty avid Twitter user and I use TwitPic to post pictures to my Twitter timeline.  Recently I noticed TwitPic was not pulling my profile image from Twitter, which I had always assumed was automatic.  Apparently I was wrong. Some may say this is trivial, but hey, I like things to be consistent. So, after an hour or so of screwing around with it, and finally figuring it out, I thought I would share what I found.

First, there is no setting in “Settings” on TwitPic to upload a profile picture.  To get TwitPic to pull your profile picture from Twitter, try the following completely unintuitive process:

  1. Log into TwitPic using your Twitter username and password.
  2. Click “Upload Photo” in the navigation bar at the top of the page.
  3. Choose an image you would like to upload to TwitPic.  It doesn’t matter WHAT picture it is.  It doesn’t have to be the image you want for your profile, because TwitPic will pull whatever image you are using on your Twitter profile (which once again in my opinion should be automatic!).
  4. After completing all the fields, make sure you DO NOT check the box that reads “Check this if you only want to upload the photo and not post it to your Twitter profile.”
  5. Click “Post It”
  6. TA-DAAAA…Your TwitPic profile is now using your Twitter profile picture.

You may have to do this each time you change your Twitter profile picture.

Don’t ask me why you have to do it this way.  It doesn’t make any sense to me either.  I would hope TwitPic fixes whatever is broken behind the scenes that is preventing profiles pics from being pulled automatically.
