What is a yahoo 360?

What is a Yahoo! 360 picture and how do you get/make one?

  • what is it?

  • Answer:

    A 360 picture is just an image file that you have on your computer that you put on a 360 page. First make sure you have the photo/image file that you want to use as your avatar on your computer. (IMPORTANT! DO NOT us an image that's tiny/avatar sized to start with. You must use 'normal' size image files.) Then you need to put the image you'd like to use as your avatar on your 360 page. You may already have one. If you do, you would be able to access it from your profile. Just click on your avatar (or "My Profile" on the upper right). The 360 option will be on the upper right. If not, you'd need to create one. http://360.yahoo.com/ To be sure your image meets proper specifications: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/guidelines/guidelines-06.html To add a photo to 360: Go to your 360 page. Click on "My Page" that's near the top. You'll see your photos (or where they would be if you don't already have photos there) and the option to "Edit Personal Photos". Click on that, then you will see where you can add photos. Click on "Choose File" to find the image on your computer. Once you add the image, click on "Save". That'll bring you back to the group of images. If you want to set the new image as primary to use here, click on "Edit Personal Photos" again. Click where it says "Set as Primary", then click "Save. Then to use your 360 image here for your avatar, go to your profile (Click on your avatar or click "My Profile" on the upper right of the page), the click on "Edit my info". Scroll down to where you choose what image you want to use and choose the 360 one. Then click on "preview" and "OK". Keep in mind that sometimes, after following all the steps, the 360 image can appear right away, or can take 2-3 days... but it will eventually appear.

Your Yahoo account allows you access to various Yahoo services - many of them are free. Yahoo! 360 beta is one of those services. When you start a Yahoo account, you get a Yahoo Profile (http://profiles.yahoo.com ) associated with that primary Yahoo ID. You can customize your profile so that people know something about you, but there are limits to what you can do with it (so far). Yet you can choose to activate the Yahoo! 360 beta service on your account to have a more extensive profile. This profile also allows you to display an image on Y/A if you like and participate in social networking. You can read more about Yahoo! 360 in this old press release: http://docs.yahoo.com/docs/pr/release1222.html and via the help pages: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/ . ______________________________________… TO ADD AN IMAGE FROM 360 AS YOUR PICTURE ON Y/A: Create a 360 space at http://360.yahoo.com . Click "Get Started" button on the far right section of that page. After going through the activation process, you can click on the teeny tiny "Yahoo 360 Home" link on the upper right of that page (or the 360 main page) to get into the 360 space. Make sure a JPEG formatted photo (with .jpg, .jpeg, .jpe extension) under 5MB is saved to your hard drive. - Click your "My Page" link at the top - Click "Edit Profile Photos" over the empty picture frame - Click "Browse" and upload photo into an empty field. Then click one "use as primary" radio button on the right before saving (if you've uploaded more than one image). You can't upload more than 4 profile pictures (this includes an avatar). Make sure that you are following the 360 Personal Photo guidelines here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/guidelines/guidelines-06.html . Then, come back to Yahoo! Answers. - Make sure that it is the same Yahoo ID that you used for 360. - Click the "My Profile" link to the upper right of this Yahoo! Answers page, then click "Edit My Info" in the top left box on the Answers profile page. - Scroll down to the image section and check the option of showing the 360 picture. Click Preview and then the OK button. Then, WAIT. NOTE: The image may not show up right away in Y/A, as it sometimes take minutes, hours, days, or weeks for the system to catch up. So, in the meantime, you will be without any picture on Y/A (a gray unisex icon) or an old 360 image. Just go through the above process and let your picture stay that way until the system makes your 360 image appear. If you don't want to wait, then just use a Yahoo! Avatar (http://avatars.yahoo.com ) and forget about using the 360 image. OTHER TIPS: *** If the 360 space is recently activated, you may want to wait a few days before changing settings, as Y/A may not recognize that you have a 360 space right away. *** You may want to enable all the communication options on your Y/A profile and/or enable the Simple URL option in your Yahoo! 360 "Basic Info" and "Blog" settings pages. Sometimes that helps make the Y!360 image appear in your Y/A profile for an unknown reason. You still may have to wait for anything to happen though. *** Although, some people have found limited success in continually trying to re-select the 360 image option in their Y/A profile. I recommend waiting though, as to not inadvertently cause further delay. *** Some people never see an image show up. You can always post a bug report (or piggyback on other's bug reports) on the issue at the Y/A forum: http://suggestions.yahoo.com/?prop=answers . This link between Y/A and Y!360 has been buggy for years
