The Yahoo Profile was removed around 1/1/2015. They are supposed to move most of the features to Account Info under the Gear icon. They still have not done so. Right now you aren't able to edit your profile picture, nickname, gender, or date of birth from within your account settings.
You can change the "Yahoo Answers" nickname. Click on your avatar/name in the left column; click on edit preferences; and click on "edit" after the nickname. A popup will open allowing you to change the name.
There is still no update as of 2/6/2016. It is beginning to look like they may never update Account Info. Yahoo is currently trying to decide which sites to close. Yahoo Answers is one of the possibilities. My avatar actually disappeared and no one at Yahoo seems to know how to get it back.
