Click on your nickname and then click on "add details."  It will give you the option to use an avatar.  If you choose to use the avatar and you don't have one, it will prompt you to create one.  Make sure you go through all the steps and save your avatar, then go back through steps 1 and 2 and make sure that the "use avatar" bubble is marked.  Good luck.

Well, if you want an avatar(which you can make to look just like you), when you log onto your e mail, you'll see theres a small box right next to where it says "Welcome whoever you are!". Click on that box and follow the instructions, and you'll have your very own mini-me(not quite like the one Dr. Evil had, but an internet mini-me) Hope I helped ya out a bit.

I don't, not enough options seems a lot of avatars look too similar. The one I made for myself I could not get it to remotely resemble me. I will stick to my cat pics.

If you've already created an avatar, you should be able to access it here.\n\nClick on your name, next to "Hello". Then click on Edit My Info.  You should have an option there to use your avatar.  If you don't see it, I suggest checking with Tech Support.

If you want to use one of the cartoon 'avatars' then It's a two step process\n\n1) Create your avatar\nGo to your Answers profile page http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit\nIn the 'Picture' section, click on "Edit My Avatar"\nThat takes you to the Avatars site where you can create your avatar\n\n2) Display your avatar on Answers\nBack on your Answers profile page, http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit\nIn the Picture section, select "Use My Yahoo Avatar"\n\n\n=================\nIf you want to use some other pic or a photo, then this requires a 360 account and this is a 3 step process\n\n1) Create your Yahoo! 360 account at http://360.yahoo.com\nNote: You need to be 18 or older to open a 360 account.  \nSo far, this is the only option if you want to use some other picture or photo.  The only three options for pics you have on your Answers profile is no pic, Yahoo avatar, or 360 picture.\n\n2) Upload a couple of pictures to your 360 page.\nOn your 360 page, select "My Page" from the top.\nSelect "Edit Personal Photos" on the left hand side.\nBrowse to your saved photo(s) (in jpeg format) to upload it.\n\nThis link will take you right to the 360 upload page, http://upload.360.yahoo.com/edit/photos.html\nSelect the "Set as Primary" button next to the photo want displayed on other sites (like Answers) and select "Save"\n\n3) Display your 360 picture on Answers\nGo to your Answers profile, http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit\nIn the "Picture" section, select "Use my Yahoo! 360 Picture"\n\n=================\n\nFinally, for either of these options, a little patience is required.  There have been many reports from other users that it takes up to a day or two for these changes to show up in Answers.  This is true for using a new avatar or pic and for an update to an avatar.  So, if the option to display your avatar doesn't show right away or if modifications don't happen immediately, just hang on.  It should show up eventually.

I believe you need to have a 360! page, you can then use a picture from there instead of an avatar.
