'Revamped Profile Photo Privacy

This concept briefly shows how to manage your profile photos better, so you can have some of your photos available for everyone, and some tagged as “Private”.

In Telegram’s current format, all profile photos are counted as private, because if someone is not part of the privacy list that we have chosen, he will see no photos on our profiles.'
