profile pictureeee?

[Blossomflower]

okay, so, um, back then, when i visited peoples' profiles (and my own) they'd have a separate little profile picture on there, that's different from their avatar. you'd only see them when you visited a person's profile. i had one too, and i spent a couple of hours working on it like 3 years ago, and i liked it and stuff....

but now... i've noticed that my profile picture's gone, and so is most peoples' (except some one girl whose name escapes me). um, what happened to the profile pictures? D: and how long has it been this way? have i just been not paying any attention and it's been this way since like, FOREVER? ._.

oh, and i can't figure out how to add one back on, if that's even possible...
