Question

Why is my 360 pic not displaying on here? help!?!?

Answer 1

First, make sure that you are using the same Yahoo ID in 360 as you are in Yahoo! Answers.

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 of your 360 space

- 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.

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. 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). 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 ).

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.

You must be new to Yahoo. Yahoo has been having a lot of problems the past year. One of those problems being 360 avatars not showing up. What I can recommend for you to do is leave it set on your Yahoo 360 avatar even if it is not showing up now it will in a week or two. I know because it has done the same to me and I just left it set at my 360 pic till it showed up. If you dont want to do that leave it set as your avatar picture or as you have it now they gray avatar. Check back every few days and see if your 360 pic shows up where you go to select it in you Yahoo profile. Have patience it will eventually show. Don't bother contact yahoo because all you will get is an automated response. They are to busy trying to improve this sight than fix the glitches right now.
