This post was originally made by someone who doesnt have access to feature requests. Anything typed below here was not written by me. (https://devforum.roblox.com/t/please-let-us-reset-our-profile-pictures-on-roblox/2519461)
Don’t get me wrong, I think that custom profile pictures are a really cool addition since it allows players to express themselves without having to spend money.
However, once you change your profile picture, there is NO going back. For some reason, Roblox has completely removed any way to reset your profile picture to default. For most people, this doesn’t matter, but it’s just another legacy feature that Roblox is removing from older players.
For reference, this is what I mean by the “default” profile picture:
And no, the “Default” option in the profile picture settings doesn’t actually reset to the default. It just makes you face forward, which obviously isn’t the same as the picture above.
I’ve been playing since early 2018 and I honestly haven’t minded most of the additions since then, since most changes don’t affect how I’m able to express myself. Sure, Rthro’s weird, but you can choose to not wear it. But when Roblox begins to remove features and stop players from expressing themselves, it kind of defeats the point.
Please, Roblox devs, consider my request. Removing access to old features doesn’t make your platform better. It doesn’t make you seem more “modern” and it won’t impress investors. All it does is make the community even more dissatisfied with the current state of Roblox.
There’s no way that this would be hard to add back. It’s probably as easy as changing the profile picture mode from “custom” to “default”. Just give us the option to do so.
