On Yahoo Answers, how do I get a picture in the box?

You could choose either a cartoon or a photo avatar

Cartoon, this way is fast, straight forward and easy. Go below, create your avatar and save. Then, click your current default avatar then click edit my preferences and you will see where to check use avatar.

Photo

Click on your current avatar then click edit my preferences to the right of your default avatar click update photo. Follow the prompts to upload it from your pc.

Go to view my Yahoo profile, click edit then click change picture. It will tell you to upload a pic from your computer and what size it should be. Just follow the instructions. Make sure your pulse is not set to private as that stops it from appearing, If this fails then it is due to the glitch many users have noticed. Yahoo are aware of it and are supposed to be sorting it.

Oh I did that just now go to Edit My Preferences which is in the My Activity page then, why won't you go ahead and hit Update Photo. IF that won't work then just use your Facebook uploaded photo by linking your accounts and click that little button next to where you link your accounts and it'll show up. That's how I did it.

It's easy, if you're makinq use of any smartph0ne like Blackberry ph0nes, iPhones, Nokia smart phones etc.. Buh if you're makinq use of a non smartph0ne, then it's impossible.
