If you want a photo/custom picture as your avatar you need to make a yahoo 360 account. http://360.yahoo.com/login.html?.done=http://360.y...
The photo needs to be saved on your computer as a jpg file, don't worry about the size to much yahoo will adapt it.
1> Click "my page” (top of page).
2> Click "edit personal photo" (on the left above photo window).
3> Click “browse” choose the photo from your photos click "save", Set as primary and "save".
4> Go to your “edit my profile” http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit click “use my yahoo 360 picture” scroll down and press "preview", and then "OK" in the next screen.
And your done.
Yahoo engineers are still working on improvements throughout all yahoo sites and some avatars may be slow to show (it could even be a day or so) so try to be patient.

In order to upload your own picture here, you need to sign in your Yahoo! 360 home page http://360.yahoo.com/ Click on the Yellow button, which says ‘Get Started’.
Follow the instructions to create one. Then:-
• Click on the button "My Page" on your right hand side,
• Click on "Edit Personal Photos" which is then on your left hand side.
• And Click on this link http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit.
• In the "Picture" section Tick ‘Use My 360 Picture’
• Then click "Preview" at the bottom and then just click "Save" and it's done
