How can I make my own avatar for Answers instead of using Yahoo's wizard?

I have a couple of images on my computer I'd love to use and already use them on other forums

Update:

in answer to betwixt and between, good answer but after uploading my picture to 360 a message telling me that yahoo photos will be closing in a couple of days and it cant process my pic. My flickr avatar is good, can i use that? and how?

    If they're on your computer, all you need to do is go to http://360.yahoo.com/ & create a profile with the same Yahoo ID as you have on Answers.

    Next, after the initial process, upload the image [make sure it is in jpeg format] into your profile & set it as your main pic. Now go back to YahooAnswers & go to your y/a profile. Click Edit My Info, & there should be the option to use your 360 avatar instead of your current one. Don't forget to save the changes.

    All you need do is either use a picture or design one. You could use Word to create a picture or some other software. If you use word, save the picture as a web page, then load it up into Yahoo.
