I want to use my 360 pic for my Q&A pic how do i change the option that hides my 360?

Question

It says (hidden) under the 360 on my Q&A profile but i cant't find where to go to change it.

Answer 1

By clicking "My Profile" to the upper right of this Yahoo! Answers page, then clicking "Edit My Info" in the top left box on the Answers profile page. Scroll down to the Privacy section and check the option of showing the link to your 360 page. Click Preview button and then the Ok button.

If it doesn't work (it has been a buggy feature) or the option is missing, put a full link in your "About Me" section.

- Click "My Page"

- Click the drop down menu "Preview as seen by" at the top right of your 360 "My Page".

- Choose PUBLIC as the permission group and click the "Go" button

- Click the "Top Page" link above your personal profile picture section on the left side.

- Select & copy the FULL web address that appears in your web browser's address bar (starting from the http:// part)

- Paste the address in your Y/A profile's "About Me" section with a space following it. If you have a Simple URL setup, use that instead. Make sure A SPACE follows the address.

The feature to display a 360 link is usually blocked to users who are under age 18. But it is also just a glitch for others.

Now, as far as using your Y!360 image in Y/A:

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.

[Make sure you are using the same Yahoo ID for 360 as for Y/A. Make sure you've chosen the pic that you want to use in Y/A as the primary one in 360 if you've uploaded more than one in the personal profile pic module.]

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). Just go through the above process and let your picture stay that way until the system makes your 360 image appear.

You need to click on edit my info when you go to your yahoo answers profile. Should be the first question.
