Missing Contact image on S9 with Android Messages

[rketek4TB]

I have switched the stock message app to Android Messages. I cannot see my contact image on the texts I send, but can see the receiving ones contact image circle.

I checked my Google image. and it works.

I checked the APP settings, Gave it all APP PERMISSIONS.

Its Version 3.5.053 and it has the Dark Mode also.

Same here.
I think this is how it is in the new version.

If anyone else has the same issue, would like to confirm.

Thanks in advance.
