My Dropbox profile picture changed to my Google account's, after adding files from Google Drive.
I was logged into my Dropbox account misc...@gmail.com and used that "Upload from Drive" thing to grab some files from my other Google Drive account ish...@gmail.com.
But then, out of nowhere, my Dropbox profile pic changed to the profile pic of that ish....gmail.com Google account! That's kinda strange, right? Especially since those are totally different email addresses.
It feels kinda wrong that just grabbing files from a Google Drive would mess with my Dropbox profile pic. Imagine if I was pulling stuff from a friend's Drive – I definitely wouldn't want their picture on my Dropbox! \
Just wanted to flag this as something that seems a bit off and maybe not how it's supposed to work.

Hey ColdCoffee4444! Thanks for posting this here.
To clarify, did you follow these exact steps, before your Dropbox profile picture was changed to the one that’s linked to your Google account?
Let me know and we'll go from there.
