Maybe the pic is too big?
It says max size 20kb, which isn't that big.
Then again it does say it will resize it if it's too large!

Avatar issue sorted for Baldy Gaz.
The pic he was trying to upload was massively oversized for what he wanted it to do, both in physical dimensions and overall memory size. (Dimensions of 4100 x 2300 & 4.0 Mb in size - That's 57" x 32" physically).
It was resized to approximately 170 x 100 as a jpg, with a density of 72dpi, and thereafter being somewhere in the region of 7kb in size. (2.5" x 1.3").
Anyone else having trouble trying to upload an Avatar, let me know and I will see what I can do for you.
As previously advised, there is a small graphics programme available FREE on the internet, where you can manipulate your own photographs in order to change the parameters that I have mentioned above + many more.
It is called PhoXo and it can be downloaded from - Get It Here
