    You can't. Avatars and the editing of nicknames, birthdates and other information were disabled more than a year ago. They are making changes to profiles. No one knows when or if they will be enabled again.

    Your user name is part of your Yahoo ID so you cannot change it without making new account. You will notice that yahoo has you input your user name when you sign in to account, that cannot be changed.

    Adding or changing profile pictures is on hold for now. Yahoo stopped that about 18

    months ago, supposedly they will let us change or add again some day soon.
