Help! Picture for DS-160

[Sparkey 17]

Can I take my own digital photo for the DS-160 and then bring 2 professional passport pics for interview?

Or do all the pictures have to be the same?

The requirement is that they are photos of the applicant that are within specification, no requirement to be identical

What photo will be used on the actual Visa? The one on the DS-160 or one of the copies brought to the interview?

Just asking! 

I wont be able to print the digital picture so I want to do it right. And my city is on lockdown so I may not be able to do a passport picture right now. 

Can you answer the question?

Not sure as some consulates take biometrics seperately at the interview.   Not familiar with what yours will do.
