When you post the URL, be sure it is to the image itself, not the page hosting it.

With Firefox browser you can right-click the picture and select View Image. With IE you need to right-click the picture, hit Properties and highlight and copy the address.

That might be it.

I think there are limitations on the size of your avatar ?

you could try resizing you pic, I think there is a maximum size stated when you go to upload ?

300 x 300 is the max.

Mine is linked from photobucket using the image link rather than the direct link.
