Description
When a user chooses a new profile picture in the "Edit Heading" prompt, they can remove the file or upload a new file. You will be given a file picker do choose any file. Once you upload the profile picture. This is stored in pod's /profile/ folder before the user even saves or accepts changes and are still in the "Edit Heading" state/session screen. Once a new profile picture is chosen and the user hit's save while still in "Edit Heading" session, then It erases the old profile picture from the pod's /profile/ folder. Unusual behavior because the user only wants to change their profile picture, it should be up to them to remove it from the pod completely.
Array/Index order of arranging the image issue?
Typically, your photo would not be completely erased unless you wanted it to on your own time on platforms. It just gets moved over.
