After a LONG time, I finally managed to get my avatar to work. But my picture looks smaller under my name than most people's do. I know everyone is limited to the same 50 x 50 pixel size...but why does mine seem so small? It's hard to even tell what it is.

 

Because it isn't square.

It is 50 x 37

 

Hmmmm.....that could be a problem. I'll work on that and see what happens.
