  1. AJ, he wants to upload his picture on this site and use it as his Avatar

    You can use a regular cartoon avatar or choose to use your own picture.

    To use something other than the standard Yahoo avatar cartoon people you'll need a Yahoo! 360 account.

    Here's specific instructions for both kinds of avatars.

    ===================

    If you want to use one of the cartoon 'avatars' then it's a two step process

    1) Create your avatar

    You can go here, http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit

    And in the "Picture" section, click on the "Edit my Yahoo! avatar" link

    2) Display your avatar on Answers

    You can go here, http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit

    in the Picture section, select "Use My Yahoo Avatar"

    And, lastly, have a little patience. It is being reported by some users that the changes do not take effect immediately. They don't see the avatar option in Answers for a day or two.

    If you want to use some other pic or a photo, then this requires a 360 account and this is a 3 step process.

    1) You'll need to create your Yahoo! 360 account. http://360.yahoo.com

    NOTE: Currently, you have to be 18 or older to get a 360 account.

    So far, this is the only option if you want to use some other picture or photo.

    The only three options for pics you have on your Answers profile is no pic, Yahoo avatar, or 360 picture.

    2) You'll need to upload one or more pictures to your 360 page.

    On your 360 page, select "My Page" from the top

    Select "Edit Personal Photos" on the left hand side

    Browse to your saved photo(s) (assuming you have one or more ready) to upload it.

    This link will take you there http://upload.360.yahoo.com/edit/photos

    Select the "Set as Primary" button next to the photo want displayed on other sites (like Answers) and select "Save"

    3) You'll need to display your 360 picture on Answers

    Go to your "My Q&A" page, select "Edit My Info"

    In the "Picture" section, select "Use my Yahoo! 360 Picture"

    This link will get you to that page, http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit

    To just change your avatar, go to:

    http://avatars.yahoo.com/

    Be sure to click Save Changes when you're done.


  2. I have no clue what you're talking about. What site? What settings?
