Avatar STILL too big?

I've been trying to add a custom avatar but it keeps telling me its too big.

Um...

It is 74x110 pixels and 7.95K which is 7950 bytes.

Am I missing something here?

This is the image I'm wanting to use. I even changed it from a .jpg to a .gif thinking the file size would mysteriously change to no avail.

Hopefully someone can help out, thanks!

You can copy and use the below one which is less than 4 kB:

FWIW, I'll delete that pic from my gallery in a day or so.

You're welcome.


Don't mind the others, they are only jealous because they don't know how to behave like a gentleman.
