If I want to add a local admin profile pic, is the only way to do so by referencing an external site/vault to copy the image from? Or is there a way to store the file on Jamf?

sudo dscl . create /Users/username Picture "/path/to/image.png"

Yeah, using this for a while too with success. I push the picture we want to the directory, and install package and script in 1 policy.
