My profile won't change?

I cannot get it to show my name, it just keeps showing a question mark even when I go to change it. And it won't show a picture. What is going on?

    When I go to your home page it should say view profile. It doesn't which is a yahoo glitch causing names to appear as ? and the grey smiley pic. We had hoped that would be fixed i the recent maintenance but sadly not yet.

    When you click on your gray face this info should be there but is missing from your page.

    From what I have learned what you have is a profile glitch.
