My avatar isn't showing up?

I've been a member of Yahoo for about a year, maybe a year an a half, and I've been a regular user of it for as long as I can remember. I'm finally changing my Answers icon to my actual avatar, but it isn't showing up. Could this have something to do with Yahoo taking down the Avatars site? Or do I have to just wait?

Update:

Still isn't showing up.
