You can use avatars in many places on Yahoo!. We frequently add new features, so check the Yahoo! Avatars home page for the latest way to use your avatar.

Yahoo! Avatars are displayed in the Messenger List of Yahoo! Messenger versions 6.0 and higher. You can also display avatars in the IM window during a Yahoo! Messenger conversation. The avatar can represent your mood the same way you use emoticons in Yahoo! Messenger.

Your avatar is also displayed in your Yahoo! Mail account, and you can see your avatar in your profile on Yahoo! Games, Yahoo! Movies, Yahoo! Podcasts, Yahoo! Answers, Yahoo! Message Boards, and Yahoo! Trip Planner. Your avatar can be one of your profile photos on Yahoo! 360°. You can use your avatar as a team logo on Yahoo! Fantasy Sports.

Note: At this time, avatars can't be disabled for a specific alias. Your avatar is displayed for your Yahoo! ID and all profiles associated with that ID everywhere avatars can be used on Yahoo!.
