Can someone please give me the steps to create a yahoo avatar? - Notanameduser - 03-24-2014 04:36 PM

Someone said the yahoo avatars page isn't available but idk if that's true, and the instructions were unclear, and they say there are parts where it says "create your avatar" but I don't see it anywhere, someone help please?

there is no way now to make a avatar with yahoo.
you need to make one. on a different site.
there lots of sites to choose from.
then you need to download one, then upload to yahoo.
go to your profile then you can upload it.

Yahoo no longer supports the creation of their cartoon avatars, sorry.

You can use a photo avatar or a cartoon avatar from another site, and if you have a Facebook or Twitter account, you can also use those avatars.

Go to: http://profile.yahoo.com/y/settings/privacy/ - make sure your profile isn't hidden, because if it is, your avatar won't show.

In case you want to use a Facebook or Twitter avatar, you need to link those accounts in the Profile options.
http://profile.yahoo.com/y/settings/linked-accounts/

You have several options in case you want a photo avatar:
a) go to your Yahoo! Answers settings at http://answers.yahoo.com/my-activity > click edit my preferences near your current pic > click "Update photo or avatar",
b) go to your Yahoo! Profile at http://profile.yahoo.com/ , click on the current avatar.
Now upload a picture or choose one of the pics you've uploaded previously.

Note: if you are on a mobile, you need to switch to desktop mode first in order for this to work.
