Why cant i change my display picture on yahoo messenger?

Is there anyway to change my display picture on Yahoo Messenger?

• I have been trying to change my display picture on Yahoo Messenger but its not changing. I have tried everything. (Please don't give me a crap like putting Jpeg image on the display picture or staying in available status or something related to 360 account. all these things have nothing to do with Yahoo messenger picture) I just need a real helpful answer Please don't start asking for what version of Yahoo i am using or things like that. even these things have got nothing to do with display picture (i mean after Yahoo Messenger 7 version every version supports a display picture so don't worry about the version either). I would really like to have a solution to this problem.

• Answer:

  If its a new photo have it ready to pick up on your desktop, unless its easy to find in your system Open messenger window. Left click on your avatar picture Select "display image" Select "share my picture" Select "select" Select a random picture from the gallery - by clicking on it - ( to make sure it changes & your Flashplayer is ok ) Select the picture you want to display, if its not one in the gallery, click "browse" and find the photo you want - double click on it,make sure its in the display panel. Note sometimes the image will be blacked-out. This will either be a flashplayer problem or the file you selected the photo from has numbers or / ., etc - you can try renaming the file. Click "OK" in top photo panel Make sure "share my picture" is still selected Click "OK" When you open the chat window the display images may be hidden - look for the little "head and shoulder" icon with an arrow pointing to it on the right hand upper side of the window - click on this to show pictures.
