I can't change my picture!? - Stephanie - 01-16-2013 09:37 AM

I can't change my answers picture. It has been one day since I changed, it is on my profile, but when I answer/ask something, my old doll picture still appears. Can someone help me?

Click on your username

Update Photo or Avatar / Change name
Don’t forget to click Submit at the bottom of the page.

Sometimes it takes 24 hrs. for the change to take effect and make sure your pulse profile is NOT set to private.

There is a glitch on here that is preventing users from changing their picture, just keep trying and hopefully it will get resolved soon.

You can use a photo or a Yahoo! cartoon avatar, 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.

If you want a cartoon avatar, go here to create one: http://avatars.yahoo.com/ - then click on "Yahoo!" under "Export your Avatar".

In case you want to use a Facebook or Twitter avatar, you need to link those accounts in the Profile options.

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/edit/about , 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.
