How do i show my Pic on here?

Question

so instead of having that grey sillouette, it can be a pic of me. it shows it on my profile, but it says its hidden.

Answer 1

The avatar is the representation of you on Yahoo! Answers. It can be a cartoon figure or a photo.

1. If you want a cartoon figure then go to http://avatars.yahoo.com and create or modify one and then go to part 3.

2. If you would rather have a photo then first pick one on your computer. If it is on the web then download it. Create a Yahoo 360 account if you don't have one. You can get one at http://360.yahoo.com . Click on the "My Page" tab and then "Edit Personal Photos". You are allowed to put four pictures there by following the instructions. Mark the one you want to use as primary.

3. Now for either a cartoon or a picture save everything and go back to Yahoo Answers. Click on your old avatar in Yahoo Answers which brings you to your profile. Now go to "Edit My Info". You can pick the cartoon or picture there to use.
