  1. You will have to double-check that you've followed all the below steps and hope for the best. After that, whether your 360 image stays visible really is up to Yahoo! Answers at that point:

    Go to http://360.yahoo.com and enter your space.

    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 (if you've uploaded more than one image).

    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... .

    Then, come back to Yahoo! Answers.

    - Make sure that it is the same Yahoo ID that you used for 360.

    - 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. Then, WAIT.

    NOTE: The image may not show up right away in Y/A, as it sometimes take days (and for some weeks) 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) or an old 360 image. Just go through the above process and let your picture stay that way until the system makes your 360 image appear. If you don't want to wait, then just use a Yahoo! Avatar (http://avatars.yahoo.com ) and forget about using the 360 image.

    Also, some people never see an image show up. You can always post a bug report (or piggyback on other's bug reports) on the issue at the Y/A forum: http://suggestions.yahoo.com/?prop=answe... . This link between Y/A and Y!360 has been buggy for years.


  2. Some users are experiencing a delay with the 360 avatar showing. it can take some time to show but it will eventually so try to be be patient.

    It has been reported that users have waited 1-2 days before the 360 avatar shows.

  3. rite now yahoo are having some problems so it might be that or try to do that over again and see if it works...
