Why can't I change my profile picture on yahoo?
Idk what's happening but when I go to my profile I click 'change picture' and it gives me 2 options- to take a picture from facebook, or to have none. I've also tried on my ask profile and the options are my avatar, or no picture. I don't like my avatar anymore, I just want to choose a picture from my computer. I have tried on 4 different computers and it does the same thing, so I think it must be a problem with yahoo?? But i have looked this up everywhere and no one else seems to have this problem.. Is there somewhere else I have to do this?? Thanks in advance!!

You can use a photo avatar or a cartoon avatar from another site, 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. In case you want to use a Facebook or Twitter avatar, you need to link those accounts in the Profile options. http://profile.yahoo.com/y/settings/linked-accounts/ 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. Note 1: if you are on a mobile, you need to switch to desktop mode first in order for this to work. Note 2: Yahoo no longer supports the creation of their cartoon avatars - it may still work for a few users, but the support was said to stop April 1. And no, this is no joke, the matter was announced quite a while ago... Ads |
