There has been a number of problems reported across the web where people can’t seem to upload a new background image to their twitter page. Well now just follow these simple steps and it will work!!

1. Log into the admin area of your twitter account

Log in to your twitter account as usual, and click on the top right settings icon and click on the “edit profile” option

2. Click on Design

Click on the design section of the menu on the left hand side. Then choose one of the standard theme colours and click on “Save Settings”

3. Upload your new background image

Now while still on the same page, first you need to clear your browser cache etc, by using Ctrl + F5 or what ever method your browser uses. Now click on change background and select the image you want to use.

Now you will need to ignore the text which says “See your changes instantly” as you won’t! You will still see the same background image you selected. Now click on “Save Changes” and again you will probably see no change and it will appear to have done nothing.

4. Go to home page

Now click on home page and see if your background has now changed, if not repeat the clearing browser cache etc as per step 3 and you should see your brand new background image.
