How to change my profile picture? - pinkie - 01-21-2013 09:24 PM
I'm on my iPad and I do NOT want to link to Facebook. How the hell do I change my profile picture on here? I haven't had a yahoo account in a few years and this pulse thing is very weird. Thanks!

Hi Pinkie -
At this time you can only change a Yahoo! Profile display picture through a desktop computer:

Thank you for choosing to use Yahoo!

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.
But you need to use a computer, sorry...
