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.

Dunno, but I just thought that I'd point out that the answer to your other question is totally wrong. 12 is only too old to do gymnastics if you want to be elite. It definitely isn't too old to start to have fun and learn cool new skills.

AVATAR

At this time you can not make a avatar from a mobile device, perhaps that will change in the future.
For now profile changes must be made from a computer.
Go here , http://profile.yahoo.com top center put the arrow on your avatar, click change picture.
From there you can upload a image from your computer or import a picture from facebook. When finished click submit on the next page.
Go here to make a Yahoo Avatar. http://avatars.yahoo.com/
Yahoo Tutorial - Click How to Use Avatars top of the page.
********
If you want a custom avatar go to one of these sites and make a custom avatar, save it to your computer and upload it as a picture.
