  • how do you attach a picture to a question and use a picture you have as your avatar?

  • Answer:

    I guess this is 2 questions for the price of one. Generally it's a 5-pt. deduction for just one question. To put a picture with a question: You need to put your image files on an photo storage site like: http://photobucket.com/ http://www.shutterfly.com/ http://flickr.com/ http://tinypic.com/ You will be provided with a link for use in forums, emails, etc. Copy the link (beginning with http://) and paste it with your question or answer. If with a question, be sure to paste the link in the space provided for more information. Also keep in mind that if you're posting photos of yourself (or anyone else) to ask people what they think, that's considered a chat violation and often gets reported. To use an image other than the Yahoo! (cartoon) avatar for you avatar: First make sure you have your photo/image file that you want to use as your avatar on your computer. Be sure to use a 'normal' sized image, not one that is tiny/avatar-sized. Then you need to put the image you'd like to use as your avatar on your 360 page. You may already have one. If you do, you would be able to access it from your profile. Just click on your avatar (or "My Profile" on the upper right). The 360 option will be on the upper right. If not, you'd need to create one. http://360.yahoo.com/ To be sure your image meets proper specifications: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/guidelines/guidelines-06.html To add a photo to 360: Go to your 360 page. Click on "My Page" that's near the top. You'll see your photos (or where they would be if you don't already have photos there) and the option to "Edit Personal Photos". Click on that, then you will see where you can add photos. Click on "Choose File" to find the image on your computer. Once you add the image, click on "Save". That'll bring you back to the group of images. If you want to set the new image as primary to use here, click on "Edit Personal Photos" again. Click where it says "Set as Primary", then click "Save. Then to use your 360 image here for your avatar, go to your profile (Click on your avatar or click "My Profile" on the upper right of the page), the click on "Edit my info". Scroll down to where you choose what image you want to use and choose the 360 one. Then click on "preview" and "OK". Keep in mind that sometimes, after following all the steps, the 360 image can appear right away, or can take 2-3 days... but it will eventually appear.

You can't attach a picture == you can only provide a link to one online (NOT on your computer's hard drive). To use a picture as your avatar, you first have to set up a Yahoo 360 profile. Upload the picture there, select it as your primary picture, come back to Yahoo Answers, go to your profile and tell it to use your 360 picture as your avatar.

You need to have your photo on any online site below are some you can use among many. http://www.flickr.com/ http://photobucket.com/ http://fotopic.net/ http://www.snapfish.com/info17 Then copy the URL link and paste it to your question.They all have different ways to copy the URL link. But below is the info on 2 of the most popular. To use flickr click on the photo then click "all size" (above the photo) choose the size you want to use then click "grab the url" under the photo and right click and paste it in your question/answer. To use photobucket click the photo and choose the size of photo you want to post then click the “direct” link under the photo and copy and paste it to your question/answer. TO GET A PHOTO/CUSTOM PICTURE AS YOUR AVATAR. If you want a photo/custom picture as your avatar you need to make a yahoo 360 account. http://360.yahoo.com/login.html?.done=http://360.yahoo.com/ The photo needs to be saved on your computer as a jpg file, don't worry about the size to much yahoo will adapt it. Then go to the following 4 steps. below 1> Go to your 360 page then click "my page” (top of page). 2> Click "edit personal photo" (on the left above photo window). 3> Click “browse” choose the photo from your photos click "save", Set as primary and "save". 4> Go to your “edit my profile” http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit click “use my yahoo 360 picture” scroll down and press "preview", and then "OK" in the next screen. And your done. Yahoo engineers are still working on improvements throughout all yahoo sites and some avatars may be slow to show (it could even be a day or so) so try to be patient. ©
