Why can't I add a profile photo to my yahoo account?

I know this question has been asked may times, but none of the answers are relevant anymore or resolve my issue.

Steps:

1. From http://answers.yahoo.com/ I hover over "Hi, Josh" in the upper left hand corner and click on "profile".

2. I hover over my default avatar and click "change picture".

3. I click on "upload" and select a small photo.

4. I can see the photo in the small editor, I center it and click "save".

5. Yahoo thinks for a few seconds.....

6. Then I get this error:

This action could not be completed because we are currently under maintenance.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Please try again later.

I have tried multiple image formats and sizes. For weeks all I get is this error. Are they really under maintenance or is something broken? I even made a new bogus account and had the same issue.
