How do i add my avatar to my profile?

How do i add a real picture from my 360 degree profile to use as my avatar?

  • Every time i try to the picture never shows up and my avatar is always blank

  • Answer:

    Many people have reported having trouble getting their 360 image to show. If you choose this option, then that will happen often. It often takes time for the Y/A system to recognize a change in the 360 image. Sometimes the change happens instantly; other times the change won't happen for days or weeks. If you've gone through the process of changing your image on Yahoo! 360 (& choosing it as primary, if more than one image is uploaded), making the sure the right settings are chosen in your Y/A profile, then all that's left is to wait. In the meantime, you will have a missing image (denoted with a red "x" or letters, the gray unisex icon) or an old 360 image as your representation on Y/A. 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. If you don't want to wait, then use a Yahoo! Avatar (http://avatars.yahoo.com ) and forget about using the 360 image. The Yahoo! Avatar rarely incurs problems in showing up on Y/A.

First check your settings. Make sure you set the 360 picture as “primary” and saved then go to your profile http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit check that “use my 360 picture” is set, click preview then OK. But having said that with so many other users have reporting this problem, yahoo are aware of the glitch and are working on a fix but it could be a few day before your avatar shows.
