Yahoo! 360 Picture appears on profile but does not for Yahoo Answers? ?

I uploaded the image, it's a jpg, it shows up in a shrinked size pic for my page that matches the size of the image for yahoo answers images yet...it's not showing up, any ideas?

    You will need to be patient. Changes to your 360 image on Y/A sometimes do not happen instantly. It can take days or weeks to change. If you've gone through the process of changing your image on Yahoo! 360 (& choosing it as primary, if more than one image is uploaded), making the sure the right settings are chosen in your Y/A profile, then all that's left is to wait.

    In the meantime, you will be without any picture on Y/A (a gray unisex icon) or an old 360 image. Just go through the process and let your picture stay that way until the system makes your 360 image appear. If you don't want to wait, then just use a Yahoo! Avatar (http://avatars.yahoo.com/ ) and forget about using the 360 image.

    Also, some people never see an image show up. You can always post a bug report (or piggyback on other's bug reports) on the issue at the Y/A forum: http://suggestions.yahoo.com/?prop=answers . This link between Y/A and Y!360 has been buggy for years.

    Did you remember to go to My Profile Edit My Info & check the circle that says: Use my Yahoo! 360 Picture Click Preview Click OK *** I changed my picture just now & it changed immediately...

    Sometimes it just takes a while for the 360 pic to catch up to Y!A, or vice versa. They should coordinate in a few hours at the most.
