How do I get my avatar to show on my yahoo Mail homepage?

Why won't my saved yahoo avatar show up in mail under my settings? Help!?

• I saved my yahoo avatar under favorites, went into mail after logging out and logging back in to verify it worked, and under the settings button--I still have a great default avatar--not my custom avatar I just created. My oldest daughter has an avatar under the settings button, but nowhere else. My youngest daughter has her avatar everywhere. We've all done exactly the same thing.

• Answer:

  You don't save it under 'Favorites'. It has to be your ACTIVE avatar. So, make the changes you want, then use the orange 'Save Changes' button under the avatar. That should update the avatar -- and it should then show up updated on your mail site as well. If this works like much of Yahoo works, you might have to be patient for a while until all the servers update with the new picture, though.
