Hi all,

 

  Thanks for the feedback. We are wrking on a fix which will ensure that the group logo is abolsutely the same across Outlook and SP and rest of the suite. No matter where you see the group from we will ensure the group image/logo is the same.

 

Please look forward to this change. At this point we are not fixing old images but any new ones created will be consistemt.

 

Thanks!

    Having the same problem and I can confirm it only works with some Groups (new ones).

     

    Hopefully we will have a fix soon

      Hi everyone,

       

         Thanks for the patience on this issue. As mentioned the issue is fixed for newly created groups. Any new group should be full syncronized when it comes to seeing the same logo.

       

      For older photos we don't have a solution as yet given older photos can have a user uploaded photos as well. We don't want to accidentally override a user uploaded photos in the process.

       

      Therefore unfortunately, current workaround is to go and manually update the older photos that have a default logo. I am circling back with the engineering team to see if we can do anything to help with this one time fix for older photos.

       

      Thanks!

        Forgive me if I am wrong but we seem to have suddenly digressed. For most of thread the discussion has been about the inconsistent appearance of Office365 Group icons across the suite. Mainly the Office365 Group icon not showing correctly in SharePoint.

         

        Suddenly you seem to be referring to default user photos and the default image for those.

         

        Is that a related issue?
