avatar/picture not working?

Since yesterday afternoon, my avatar seems stuck on the smiley face thing. I tried switching from an unploaded photo to cartoon avatar, I've uploaded another photo. Nothing seems to switch it from the smiley face.

I've seen other times where I get the smiley face but reloading the page fixes it and it's no longer a problem. Nothing seems to get the custom avatar to show up this time though.

Am I the only one not seeing my custom avatar? Do you guys seem my cartoon avatar or picture?

Update:

Problem seems fixed.

thanks whizzz... I hid my profile about a week ago. I guess it just took a while to propagate through.

and pricilla, i can see your avatar changed as well, so you seem fixed too.

    Smiley face is showing. Do you have your pulse profile hidden. That could be the problem, if you do you can change it go to http://pulse.yahoo.com/ click Settings - Manage Privacy Settings then uncheck Hide my profile
