Why can't the pictures from my 360 show up as my avatar?

How do I get two pictures of my avatar to show in my Y! 360?

  • I have a full avatar shot, but I also want a closer up image of it too. How do I go about doing this?

  • Answer:

    Well, you have one spot in your 360 personal profile pic module to use for a Yahoo! Avatar that is animated. You've done that. However, you can get a static image of your avatar to appear on your 360 too. First, you have to create it. Go to http://avatars.yahoo.com . Click the "Add To Favorites" button under your current avatar. A popup window will appear so that you can name it and save it on the Y!Avatars site. Now, change the avatar. Click the "Save Changes" button when you're done. On the right side of the page in the blue box, click the "Export" link. At the top left of the page, click the "Download" link. Choose the Large Avatar JPG version of the image to download to your hard drive. After you download this avatar, click on the "Return to Avatars Main Page" link at the upper left of the page. Click the new starred "My Favorites" tab. Click the "Favorite Avatars" link. Click on the first avatar that you made. As for the second avatar, - Click your "My Page" link at the top - Click "Edit Profile Photos" over the empty picture frame - Click "Browse" and upload your avatar JPG image into an empty field. Then click one "use as primary" radio button on the right before saving. You should now have an animated avatar and a static avatar on your 360 space. NOTE: The personal picture module is buggy, so you may not be able to upload an image there anyway. Just letting you know.

Go to your avatar home and set the photo up but put it on the close up and when some one click on your page they will see the full avatar then it will switch to the close up one.Look in the preferences to also see how this is done.

Yahoo has stopped maintaining this feature. This is not a good sign and I would keep an eye on the stock ticker.
