SEE STEP #1.
Your avatar can be a cartoon or a photo. You can also use your Facebook or Twitter avatar. For an animated gif you should make it your Twitter avatar first.
STEP 1.
In order for your avatar to appear you must make your Yahoo Profile visible. That is done here:
http://profile.yahoo.com/y/settings/privacy/
There is no reason to hide your profile. Nothing appears unless you enter it and turn a switch on. The name can be anything you want.
STEP 2.
If you want to use your Facebook or Twitter avatar be sure to link the sites in the Profile options.
http://profile.yahoo.com/y/settings/linked-accounts/
STEP 3.
To create a cartoon avatar first go to http://avatars.yahoo.com and create one.
STEP 4.
Click on the default avatar in Y!A and select "edit my preferences".
[shortcut: http://answers.yahoo.com/my-activity/edit/about ]
Click on "update photo or avatar" and a small window will open.
You can select the cartoon, Facebook, or Twitter avatar or upload your own photo.
After clicking "use selected photo" be sure to click "submit".
The same photo will appear in the Yahoo Profile.

Avatars
For a pic or an avatar.
Go to edit my preferences at the right of your avatar click update photo or avatar. You can get an avatar at http://avatars.yahoo.com/home.php?g=fIn the box that opens select add photo or customize avatar. Follow the instructions and job done.
Make sure your pulse is not set to private as that stops it from appearing.
To add gif avatars follow this http://avatarsdb.com/
There are problems at the moment so make sure you do it correctly and be patient for 24-48 hours
