1. Activate Pantheon desktop.
2. Log in with Pantheon desktop.
3. Click on "User Accounts Settings..." in session menu (top right corner).

Should be able to access user accounts settings.

Hi! switchboard-plug-useraccounts is not packaged on NixOS yet since most users manage users in a declarative way. But anyway I am tracking the packaging issue here, this plug requires some patching to make it actually work and I don't have time to figure it out yet (sorry for that 😿).

To change user profile picture, you can create the file /var/lib/AccountsService/icons/yourusername as your profile picture, then edit /var/lib/AccountsService/users/yourusername:

[User]
Icon=/var/lib/AccountsService/icons/yourusername
