Can you upload the screenshot to an image sharing site or drive, then post the link here? Or give description to your issue in words? It may take time till your screenshot gets approved by an admin.

A message that you receive will not be linked to the Myself contact.

Messages that you receive are linked to the normal contacts so i suspect you have your number stored on a normal contact as well with the same picture that you have as avatar here on the forum.

That sounds strange. It gets this picture from your standard contacts and it also shows your name in the screenshot. If i send an SMS to my own number and don't have my number stored on a normal contact, it will only display the phone number at the top and there's no contact picture at all on the received message.

But if you want to have the same picture when you're messagning yourself it should help to create a normal contact with your phone number and then add the same picture as you have on the Myself contact.
