Answer 1

TO GET A PHOTO/CUSTOM PICTURE AS YOUR AVATAR.

If you want a photo/custom picture as your avatar you need to make a yahoo 360 account. http://360.yahoo.com/login.html?.done=ht...

The photo needs to be saved on your computer as a jpg file, don't worry about the size to much yahoo will adapt it.    

1> Click "my page” (top of page).

2> Click "edit personal photo" (on the left above photo window).

3> Click “browse” choose the photo from your photos click "save", Set as primary and "save".

4> Go to your “edit my profile” http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit  click  ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚€Âœuse my yahoo 360 picture” scroll down and press "preview", and then "OK" in the next screen.

And your done.

Yahoo are still doing maintenance throughout all yahoo sites and some avatars may be slow to show so try to be patient.
