In MS Planner (part of Office 365), the Plan is like a 'board' in other systems (e.g. Trello). Say we have a Plan where its original name was Admin Tasks. Then we later rename it DBA Projects. When the Plan is first created, its default 'icon' is the Plan's title initials, AT, with some flat background color.
The problem is, after the rename, the Plan's (default) icon will not automatically change. Being a stickler, this is really bothering me. How can I change the Plan's icon and make it use the new title initials, DP?

Some searching brought me to an MS Answers post here. To change the Plan's icon, which is really a Group in O365, you go to the People app and edit the icon there. I uploaded a "custom" icon (just a random jpg/png), Saved it. Then came back to edit it again, removed the custom picture, and Saved again. Finally, I cleared my browser's cached images, and viola, the Plan's icon was showing its new title initials in the Planner app. Yay! Pictures shown.
