Here you can change your password and the image associated with your user account. You can also edit the personal information that is associated with your account, and you can change the way the password entry field on the login screen behaves.
===Change your image===
In order to change your image, you just need to click on the box at the left side of your username, which should contain your current image. A face selection window will pop up. There you can choose between the different images avaliables, or click on <menuchoice>Custom image</menuchoice> to search for an image file in your computer. Once you have chosen your desired image, press <menuchoice>OK</menuchoice>.
In case you are not able to edit your picture and you are using KDM as login manager (not applicable for LightDM), go to [[Special:myLanguage/System Settings/Login Screen|Login Screen]], and in the <menuchoice>Users</menuchoice> tab change User Image Source to "User, system" or "User".

Here you can configure your preferred directories for different kinds of content, such as your ''Desktop Folder'' or your ''Music Folder''. Applications can use these values as default.
For example, if you set a value for the ''Music Folder'', first time you start [[Special:myLanguage/Amarok|Amarok]] it will ask you if you want to use that folder to store your music collection.

These settings allows you to manage your web shortcuts.
Applications like [[Special:myLanguage/Konqueror|Konqueror]], [[Special:myLanguage/Rekonq|Rekonq]], and [[Special:myLanguage/KRunner|KRunner]] let you search a wide variety of information providers on the web. If you enable web shortcuts, you simply type a short provider specific prefix followed by your search term. To search the web for pages about KDE, for example, you can just open '''KRunner''' (press <keycap>Alt + F2</keycap>) and type <code>gg: KDE</code>. The results will be shown in your standard browser.  Since ''Use prefered shortcuts only'' option is enabled by default, before starting to use a web shortcut, mark the web shortcut you want to use as preferred (in the third column) or uncheck ''Use prefered shortcuts only''.
There is more information on web shortcuts in [http://docs.kde.org/development/en/kde-baseapps/konqueror/enhanced-browsing.html the Konqueror Handbook].
