• Answer:

  Parts of Yahoo! 360 are transitioning to the Yahoo! Profile and thus other services are making an adjustment in their settings. It's just Yahoo! Answers' turn for changes in their settings. Yahoo! Answers has said that your image must come from the Yahoo! Profile instead of Yahoo! 360, as of March 19, 2009. This change is gradual, so your other account may not have been adjusted yet. Go to http://profiles.yahoo.com and upload the image that you're using in 360 there (or a new image). Then, come back to Yahoo! Answers and choose the "Use my Profile image" option in your Yahoo! Answers' profile settings. See http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/profiles/photos/01.html , http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/answers/profiles/profiles-751483.html , and http://yanswersblog.com/index.php/archives/2009/03/18/what%E2%80%99s-happening-to-my-image/ for details. If you still have "Yahoo! 360 options" in your Yahoo! Answers profile settings, then you will have to wait for Yahoo to change that to "Yahoo! Profile" settings before you can select anything. NOTE: This transition was announced in October 2007 on the Yahoo! 360 product blog and the Yahoo! Profile actually started in a rudimentary beta form on October 16, 2008. The Y!360 part of the system hasn't been transferred over fully yet. See the links below for more details on what will be kept from 360 and what won't be kept (which I recommend that you take steps to save elsewhere). - See blogs (old & new) at http://blog.360.yahoo.com/product_360 and http://www.yprofileblog.com for more details. The 360 team blog is also accessible via the "Yahoo! 360 News" link in the upper right corner of your 360 space. You can post complaints on the Yahoo! 360 blog, but don't expect a personal response. - See the links in these blog entries for more details on Yahoo's overall direction and UPS: http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6fLRvC60pERfR7.8c?p=1560 , http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6fLRvC60pERfR7.8c?p=1414 , http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6fLRvC60pERfR7.8c?p=1168 , and http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6fLRvC60pERfR7.8c?p=1236 .
