I can't add my Yahoo! 360 picture as my Y!A avatar?

Question

I just got a Yahoo! 360 account today. I have a primary picture, but when I try to change from using my Yahoo! Avatar to using my 360 picture as my Yahoo! Answers avatar, it says '360 not found' and does not display my 360 image to add. Also when I click on the link to my 360 page, it goes straight to Yahoo! Members Directory and not my 360 page. Does it take time for a 360 to set in with a Y!A account?

Answer 2

The whole Y! system has been having a glitch these past days.

Your 360 account does not take long to develop, or any time at that, usually, because as soon as you save your first changes, they are saved, not still developing.

Have some photos saved on your PC? Good we can go on this way.....

First you must have a Yahoo 360 Account. Click this link: http://360.yahoo.com/

Upload your photos and set one as primary (the one you want to see on Yahoo Answers)

Yahoo 360 Photo Uploading Instructions:

1. Click "My Page" at the top of the page.

2. Select either "Upload Yahoo! Photos" or "Edit Profile Photos" on the left.

3. On the Personal Photos page, click "Browse" to find Yahoo! Photos on your computer's hard drive.

4. Click "Upload."

5. Click "Save" at the bottom of the page.

When done with Yahoo 360 go back to Yahoo Answers.

Click on "My Profile", then Click on Edit Info, scroll down and check the option "Use 360 picture"

Congratulations!

See yah..

Sometimes, yes. This is not a good time to try adding a 360 pic to Y/A, as there have been glitches these past few days.

The image may not show up right away in Y/A, as it sometimes take days for the system to catch up. Also, there is a history of glitches with the feature. So, patience is necessary. You'll need to go through the process and have a blank image for a while until the system processes the change. OR you can use a Yahoo! Avatar instead (http://avatars.yahoo.com ) and just wait to see when everyone stops having the same issue, then try to use the 360 image again. It's up to you.

Lastly, it's not always an issue with 360. Yahoo!Answers has glitches of its own sometimes. It may have to do with the Y!360 transition/closing (which hasn't happened yet); it may not. Since this delay has happened many times before, I think not. Click on the "Yahoo! 360 News" link in the upper right corner of your 360 to find out more.

UPDATE: You can add your voice to the complaining chorus on this issue in these bug posts via the Y/A forum:

In that friend thing, please don't tell me you're talking about me lol.

Well, I think Yahoo is suffering from a disease called 'glitch' at the moment, so I don't think this is a good time for you to change your pics. One of my other contacts suffered from that prob as well.
