Unable to delete/change my apple id photo

I log into icloud, and I have a old photo shown for my picture, but I cannot delete it. I can start to upload and "preview" a new photo, but it just does not replace the old one.

My current picture is not appearing on other apple sites though, just on the mac.

I dont have a phone currently, just a mac, hardly use it.

Windows, Windows 10

Those steps do not appear to work in the Firefox desktop browser.

It's all a little confusing because on this page https://discussions.apple.com/profile/preferences

I can choose a community profile avatar, but using the same apple id - so they are not linked. Whatever, back to my original question.

I think the correct steps I need to follow when I am back in office tomorrow, because the image I see on my mac login has to be set by just pasting in a new image while I am in the profile settings screen. It may well be that it's all been about cloud sync I hope. Will udpate when I do figure out the disconnect in my understanding.
