Default My profile photo isn't showing up

Could somebody please explain to me why my profile photo isn't showing up on these forums? I uploaded a photo of myself to my profile a week ago, and I can see it in my profile, but it's still not showing up in any of these posts.

Thanks,
Scott

Your profile pic was a *.gif which is not accepted as an avatar.

Without your permission, I downloaded your picture, converted it and uploaded it as your avatar. I would say that it's all better now but perhaps it was better without the picture.

Tony's the best.

Tony, if you have time, can you Shepard Fairey-ize my avatar photo?

I think I need the same. My file is a JPG and is the right size, but it doesn't show up with my messages. How do you convert a JPG to an avatar?

You don't. It doesn't need to be converted. Make it the right size and upload it.
