• Answer:

  Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Your Avatar. Your avatar can be a cartoon figure or a photo. The cartoon figure is also used in Yahoo Messenger and appears on some customized Yahoo pages. The photo only appears in Yahoo 360 and Yahoo Answers. If you do not have an avatar then a shadow of a male figure appears. It can't be changed to female. № 1. If you want a cartoon figure then go to http://avatars.yahoo.com and create or modify one and then go to № 3. If you create one of the wrong sex then it can be changed in "preferences". № 2. If you would rather have a photo then you must upload it to Yahoo 360 from your computer. If it is on the web then download it first. Create a Yahoo 360 account if you don't have one. You can get one at http://360.yahoo.com . Click on the "My Page" tab and then "Edit Personal Photos". You are allowed to upload up to four photos there from your computer. Mark the one you want to use as your avatar as primary. № 3. Now for either a cartoon or a photo save everything and go back to Yahoo Answers. Click on your old avatar in Yahoo Answers which brings you to your profile. Now go to "Edit My Info". You can pick the cartoon or photo to use. BE SURE TO PREVIEW AND SAVE (OK) THE PAGE AT THE BOTTOM. Shortcut: http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit NOTE: Many people are having problems with the Yahoo 360 avatar showing up. My only recommendation is to wait or try deleting and recreating it.
