I have successfully transferred photos to my Keepsafe file but am not sure how to transfer a particular one to the profile picture on the family chart. I am sure there is an easy answer to this but it escapes me!

Click on the image, then on the right hand side you can type in the name of the appropriate ancestor. Once you've selected the correct one, make sure to save.

It isn't possible to draw a square around an individual' head-shot, although you can crop it.
It is possible to attach the same composite photo to a number of individuals. You might possibly have to upload the same photo numerous times if you intend to crop to highlight each individual.

Just one more question - if I have copied an incorrect image to a profile photo on my family chart how do I delete this, please?

Go into your Keepsafe, and click your mouse over the incorrectly attached image.
That should open it up on a full page.

On the right, click the Edit button.
The name of the relation the image is attached to will highlighted in grey – you may have to scroll down.

The name will have a little x after the born-died date. Click the x. That will remove the link.

You can then type the name of the correct person in that box & select when it appears.
