• Answer:

  If you want to use one of the cartoon 'avatars' then It's a two step process 1) Create your avatar Go to your Answers profile page http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit... In the 'Picture' section, click on "Edit My Avatar" That takes you to the Avatars site where you can create your avatar 2) Display your avatar on Answers Back on your Answers profile page, http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit... In the Picture section, select "Use My Yahoo Avatar" ================= If you want to use some other pic or a photo, then this requires a 360 account and this is a 3 step process. 1) You'll need to create your Yahoo! 360 account. http://360.yahoo.com NOTE: Currently, you have to be 18 or older to get a 360 account. So far, this is the only option if you want to use some other picture or photo. The only three options for pics you have on your Answers profile is no pic, Yahoo avatar, or 360 picture. 2) You'll need to upload one or more pictures to your 360 page. On your 360 page, select "My Page" from the top Select "Edit Personal Photos" on the left hand side Browse to your saved photo(s) (assuming you have one or more ready) to upload it. This link will take you there http://upload.360.yahoo.com/edit/photos.... Select the "Set as Primary" button next to the photo want displayed on other sites (like Answers) and select "Save" 3) You'll need to display your 360 picture on Answers Go to your "My Q&A" page, select "Edit My Info" In the "Picture" section, select "Use my Yahoo! 360 Picture" This link will get you to that page, http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit... It has been reported by other users that it can take a couple of days before the option to use your 360 pic appears on your Answers profile.
