    Hi , thank you for posting on the online community. The reason people can't use photos of theirselves on their profile is to keep everyone safe. This is expressed in our community rule 2:

    'This Community forum is public, so do not post personal or identifying details. This includes, but is not limited to, full names, addresses, contact details, social media, or photographs of yourself. (updated February 2020)'

    The full list of rules can be found here: https://community.autism.org.uk/p/rules.

    Best wishes,
