An avatar is a small image that will be displayed under your username in your posts. It must not be any bigger than 60 x 60 pixels and 10,240 bytes (10 KiB).

(Added emphasis.)

EDIT: I use this to generate a 60x60 .png from a larger size .svg image:

inkscape --export-width=60 --export-height=60 --export-filename=avatar.png Anarchist_black_cat.svg

I reduced the size of an image 5 times before giving up; the upload dialog would be the best place to display the size limit.
