How do I upload a picture?
You can upload up to 10 pictures at a time by:
- Visiting the picture upload page here: https://fetlife.com/pictures/new
- Selecting "Choose File" and picking one or more pictures (you can also drag and drop them into the box)
- Optionally adding a caption, people in the picture, albums, and tags
- Optionally checking "Use as Avatar" to make the picture your avatar
- Checking the box to certify that everyone in the picture consented to have it uploaded to FetLife, that everyone was 18 or older when it was taken, and that you have documentation to support this
- Choosing who can see it under "Privacy": "FetLifers," "Friends & Followers," or "Friends"
- Selecting "Upload Your Picture" (or "Upload Your Pictures" if you picked more than one)
When you upload more than one picture at once, they are posted together as a picture set that people can swipe through. To use one of them as your avatar, check "Use selected picture as avatar" and tap that picture. Learn more in How do I update my avatar?
Note: If you don't have an avatar yet, the first picture you upload becomes your avatar. Avatars are always visible to all FetLifers.
Scheduling a picture for later
Supporters can pick a date and time for a picture to be published instead of posting it right away. Open the dropdown next to "Upload Your Picture" and choose "Schedule Picture." Learn more in How do I schedule a picture, video, or writing?
Changing a picture set after it's posted
- Open the picture set
- Select "Options" below the picture
- Choose "Edit"

- Select "Save Changes"
