How do I get my yahoo 360 pic to show?

Ugh! I have apicture on my Yahoo! 360 profile, but I can get it to show up as a display pic on Answers!?

  • What do I do? I already went under "edit my info" and selected "use my 360 profile pic," or whatever it says, and just the blank face shows up as my pic. It's saved on 360 and everything, it shows up there. Do you guys know??

  • Answer:

    Double-check that you are using the correct services and have followed all the instructions below. Patience is necessary. If you do this correctly, we should not see your Yahoo! Avatar in Y/A (as we do now): Create a 360 space at http://360.yahoo.com . While logged into a yahoo service (mail, answers, whatever), type 360.yahoo.com in your web browser's address field (or just type 360 in a Yahoo! toolbar). Click "Get Started" button on the far right section of that page. NOTE: Like Yahoo! Answers, users should be age 13 and up to use Y!360. After that, you can log in by by clicking on the teeny tiny "Sign-in" button on the upper left of the page. Then, the page refreshes and click on the teeny tiny "Yahoo 360 Home" link on the upper right of the 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 days (and for some 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. Also, 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.
