How to create a yahoo 360 avatar?

Changing my picture/Yahoo 360 Problem?

• I just made an avatar to change my starter default picture, but it only shows up on my profile as "Christina has created an avatar" not as my actual picture :( Can anyone help me? I heard that you had to make a 360 account, but when I tried doing that it wasn't working. And would'nt let me create one, then I googled it and found out that Yahoo 360 was shut down in 2009...but then how can I change my picture without using Yahoo 360? Please be very specific! I get really confused easily, thanks :)

  NOTE: Yahoo 360 has changed to Yahoo Pulse. HOW TO EDIT OR CHANGE YOUR PUBLIC PROFILE IMAGE: You can either upload a photo to use as your public image, use a photo that you have already uploaded, use an avatar, or if your Yahoo! account is connected to your Facebook account you can use your Facebook image. Once you have selected a photo to use as your public image, it is stored in a carousel of photos so that it is easy to select as your public photo again in the future. If you upload a photo specifically to use as your public image, it is only stored in the carousel, and can only be used as your public photo. If you want to store the photo in your account, upload the photos using Yahoo! Pulse Photos. You can then add the photo to the carousel. To upload a new photo for your public photo: 1. Click Profile located on the left side of the Yahoo! Pulse page. 2. Hover over the photo or photo placeholder at the top of the page. 3. Click Add/Change your photo. 4. Click Upload a photo. 5. Click Browse and select a photo to upload. 6. Customize the size of the photo by dragging the corners of the photo boundary outline to the desired position. 7. Click Done. 8. Click OK to confirm. To select a photo you have already uploaded as your public photo: 1. Click Profile located on the left side of the Yahoo! Pulse page. 2. Hover over the photo or photo placeholder at the top of the page. 3. Click Add/Change your photo. 4. You can either select one of the photos shown in the carousel and click OK, or 1. Click Select from album and select one of the photos. The carousel displays all your photos by default. If you want to view your photos an album at a time, use the pull-down list at the top of the “Add a display picture” box to select an album. 2. Click Done. 3. Customize the size of the photo by dragging the corners of the photo boundary outline to the desired position. 4. Click Done. 5. Click OK to confirm. If your profile is connected to your Facebook account, your Facebook profile image is included in the carousel. To use an avatar as your public photo: 1. Make sure you are signed in with your Yahoo! ID. 2. Sign in with your Yahoo! ID at Yahoo! Avatars. 3. Create an avatar, click here to learn more. 4. Click Profile on the left side of the Yahoo! Pulse page. 5.
