Ok so how do people have actual pictures rather than the yahoo avatars?

Question

if you know, i would prefer step-by-step instructions ü

Answer 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 is acting erratically most of the time, and you might not be able to display your picture right away.  But this is how it is done. Sometimes it takes days or weeks, so keep on trying.
