The problem is is that it is over the Byte limit I think. It is small enough in physical dimensions but still too large of a file size.

   Avatar's must be smaller than 60 by 60 pixels and smaller than 30,000 bytes. These limits are in place to try keep the pages from taking too long to load.

   Your avatar2.gif is over 130,000 bytes in size. It has 166 frames which is far too many. By removing frames you can make it work. I think the following is about 24,000 bytes.

   I think I removed the wrong images. If you play with number of images and the timing, you can do a much better job than I can.

No, it's just fine! It's about 12k, well under the limit!
