You can add an image as your user avatar from your Profile Settings avatar page.
Just click Change Photo and choose an image from your device.
The maximum file size is 1 MB. We recommend JPEG format and at least 512×512 pixels.
Other formats will be converted to JPEG, so transparent avatars will not work as expected.

Thank you!
For our readers experiencing latency?
Short answer:
Be patient and wait eventually this will get added to your Sketchfab account, may take nearly 3-5 minutes when it feels like an eternity for the avatar to change
Long answer:
Back in 2017 I signed-up and today i've decided to change my avatar using the recommended 512x512 + JPG under 1MB and all i was getting is a spinner for nearly 5 minutes with a JPG = 48KB which feels like an eternity for the avatar to change
Tried using a Mac BookPro running High Sierra and Apple iMac running Yosemite
Google Chrome
Version 67.0.3396.87 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Firefox Quantum
57.0.1 (64-bit)
and then after writing this comment I see my updated avatar - woo hoo!
Could be a number of things why this happened
Your guess is as good as mine. For those experiencing latency all I can recommended is give the upload some time. If this didn't work for you add a comment and maybe someone has a different experience to share with the community!
