Your avatar can be a cartoon or a photo. You can also use your Facebook or Twitter avatar.

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.
To create a cartoon avatar first go to http://avatars.yahoo.com and create one.

STEP 3.
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.

You can also select the photo in the Yahoo Profile instead.

For a pic or avatar.See the yahoo help here.http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/pulse/p… look under public photo and follow the instructions and job done. Make an avatar at http://avatars.yahoo.com Make sure your pulse is not set to private as that stops it from appearing,

You can not have a picture or avatar with a hidden profile.

Your Profile is Hidden to make your avatar visible go here http://pulse.yahoo.com/y/settings click Manage Privacy Settings.
Move the second tab so it says Your profile is currently visible.

You have got an hidden profile.Make it pubblic on Setting's page http://profile.yahoo.com/y/settings/privacy Otherwise you can't change it,because to put a photo and make a profile picture you need to have a public profile.
• To change the photo follow the prompts here http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/answers/profiles/profiles-751483.html;_ylt=AoXn37Nxw2cfLbmIUP0p01GVUHdG Note: when you click on "Profile on yahoo (link) you have to click on the person with the pen and the written ''edit'',then you can change the photo.
Note :You have to wait at least 48 hours after the setting of the photo,that's because Y!Team decides to screen each photo the users put,to avoid and prevent porn or vulgar that were very usual and annoying,and they ruined this site.
