I created a user and added a photo through the Service Portal Profile's "Upload Picture" button. I then coded a process so that a user could remove their profile picture which successfully removed the relevant entries from the "sys_attachment" table.
However the picture is still appearing in the user's profile. I cannot find anything in the "sys_attachment" table that has been created/updated today - which is when I added the profile picture - and there is nothing related to this user tagged for "ZZ_YYlive_profile", "sys_attachment", "thumb*", etc.
Is there somewhere else that this information is stored which would normally just be overwritten by adding a new photo? The "photo" entry in "sys_user" is "null" so I'm guessing it isn't there.
Very confused!

I tried logout/login, browser closure, etc. and none of those worked.
Turned out I needed to clear the cache.

I came to the same conclusion.
I tried to delete image from live_profile form in backend. it still showed dark blank image on the portal.
So they must be caching it at their end. Wierd!!!
Mark my ANSWER as CORRECT / HELPFUL if it served your purpose.
