How to get a icon on my profile?

How do I get my icon changed on my profile?

  • Whenever I answer a question, it always shows that boring old gray smiley face. I want to change it, but I'm new and I don't know how! Can someone with experience tell me step by step how to change my icon please??

  • Answer:

    ❶ If you want a CARTOON avatar then create or modify one at http://avatars.yahoo.com and then go to 3. ❷ If you want a PHOTO avatar then upload an image to your profile at http://profiles.yahoo.com . Click on the current photo to get the update options. Select the one you want to use and then go to 3. ❸ Now go to the Yahoo Answers profile at http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit . You can pick the cartoon or photo to use. BE SURE TO PREVIEW AND SAVE (OK) THE PAGE AT THE BOTTOM. ₪ ɦəlʞɹɐq ₪
