I've tried everything I know how to try, even deleting my previous avatar and building a new one. When I go to Yahoo Answers help section...there's my avatar! But not on Answers itself. I just get the "gray grin". Help!

Thanks. I tried all this, and I still have Gray Grin.

Wait a second. I just tried it again, and it worked. I have an avatar! Thanks very much.

Your avatar can be a cartoon figure or a photo. Some sites use the cartoon and some use the photo. Some, such as Yahoo Answers , give you a choice. If you do not have an avatar then a square smiley face appears.
№ 1. If you want to create a cartoon avatar then go to http://avatars.yahoo.com and create or modify one and then go to № 3.
№ 2. If you want to create a photo avatar. Go to your profile at http://profiles.yahoo.com and upload an image there. Click on "Change Photo" and upload one or more. Select the one you want to use.
№ 3. Now for either a cartoon figure or a photo save everything and go back to Yahoo Answers. Click on your old avatar in Yahoo Answers which brings you to your profile. Now go to "Edit My Info". You can pick the cartoon or photo to use. BE SURE TO PREVIEW AND SAVE (OK) THE PAGE AT THE BOTTOM. Shortcut: http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit
