  1. TO CHANGE YOUR AVATAR TO YOUR PICTURE ON YOUR YA PROFILE

    (Be sure you have your favorite pictures saved on your computer: to drive:C ‘My Pictures’ folder.)

    Click on this link http://360.yahoo.com/ to go to your Yahoo 360 page.

    1. Click on ‘My Page’ then click ‘Edit Personal Photos’

    2. Upload your picture (click on "Browse", go to drive:C , open ‘My Pictures’ folder and select the picture you want to use. Your image must be a jpeg file, either .jpg or .jpeg.)

    3. Check "Set as primary" next to your picture

    4. Click "Save" to finish

    To display your picture in Yahoo! Answers::

    1. Click on your Yahoo Answers avatar.

    2. Click on "Edit My Info"

    3. In the picture setting, select "Use my Yahoo! 360 Picture"

    4. Click "Preview"

    5. Click "OK’

    ------------------------------

    Note: Yahoo! 360 might be down at the moment, but basically, this is how to display your real picture on YA.


  2. 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.

    NOTE: Sometimes changes can take up to 24 hours due to work Yahoo is doing to the system. Be patient. Some people have indicated that there is no way to upload a 360 picture. I can only say that I was able to upload on 5/10/2008.

    On the page that comes up click the browse option in any of the bottom three slots.. do not try to use the first one.. it does not work.

    It will open a popup to your MY PICTURES file and choose a photo that is the jpg file format and not over 5 MB in size.

    Go to the bottom of the page and click SAVE.

    It will take you back to your MY PAGE where you click the Edit Personal Photos option once more and beside your uploaded picture or under it will be an option that says Primary ... click it and once again go to the bottom of the page and save it..

    After you do this come back to you Answers Profile and click onto edit my profile..

    on the page that comes up choose from the options there to Use My 360 Id Photo as My Answers Profile Photo.

    click save at the bottom of the page and you have done it.
