It may take up to one day for your picture to be changed in all Google services.
Once you apply your picture, you'll be able to view and change it from your Gmail settings page. It will also show up as your picture in Google Talk. Likewise, picture selections made in Google Talk will be reflected in your Gmail interface, though there might be a slight delay for the change to take effect. If you have a Google Profile, changes made to your Gmail picture will be reflected in your Google Profile.
We also have some general SOU logos to use as directory picture. Simply right-click on your favorite picture below and choose "Save Image As..." or on a Mac, drag the file picture to your desktop. Then, just follow the directions above to upload the new image from your computer to your Gmail/Directory profile.
