    Sorry if this has been asked before,but I dont understand it.

    I would like to change my profile pic and relationship status on facebook without all my friends knowing.See i changed my "who can see my stuff" in the settings page to "only me".

    After I changed my profile pic and removed it from my timeline it is still appearing on the facebook feed.

    Is there away around this,am I doing something wrong

    Did you remove the picture before or after you changed the settings to 'only me'?

    Have you checked the privacy settings on the picture on the news-feed? What's that saying if you haven't checked already?

    After I changed the setting to "only me" I then uploaded the pic to my profile and removed it from my timeline yet it appeared on the news feed for everyone????

    Are you sure it was visible to everyone on the time-line though?

    It can appear there on the time-line, kinda like a run of the mill procedure, but once settings are set to 'only me', then only you would actually be able to see it, eventhough it is there on the time-line.

    Does that make sense? :)
