Question

How do i add my picture to my 360 site from flicker?

Answer 1

You don't need Flickr to add it in your personal profile photos module (left side, Top Page). 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.

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/gui... .

If you want this image displayed in Yahoo! Answers, come back to Yahoo! Answers. 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.

NOTE: The image may not show up right away in Y/A, as it sometimes take days for the system to catch up. So, in the meantime, you will be without any picture on Y/A (blank, grayed out, messed up...whatever you want to call it). Just go through the above process and let your picture stay that way until the system makes your 360 image appear.

If you want to use your Flickr Photostream in your Share Photos module, you can't likely. That module has been busted since the summer. You may find that a photostream appears after days, weeks, or months of waiting, but it won't update after that. So, please see details here on that issue and other ways to use Flickr photos in your 360 space:
