Hello @dude41, nice to meet you. This will help you. Welcome, and good luck on Steemit.

Your profile info, avatar image, and cover image are set in your Settings page. In order to update your avatar picture and cover image, you will need to host the images somewhere. This can be done by uploading it to a Steemit comment or post, or using a third-party image host such as Postimage. Once your image is uploaded, copy its URL and paste it into the "Profile Picture URL" box for the avatar, or the "Cover Image URL" box for the cover image. Then click the Update button and enter your password or active key.

Yeah go to settings in your steemit account and paste the image address that you wanted to put as your profile picture :)
To get image address send the pic to yourself on Facebook ( in PC) then press right click and copy the address , then paste it in steemit respective settings
