your old avatar is :

http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h355/dantheman1978/oof.jpg

when you set that here  you get

The following errors occurred when trying to save your profile:

    The avatar you have selected is either too large or not an avatar.


the max dimensions allowed are 110x110px 50kb (rules state :  Please keep avatars to below 50k to avoid annoyance to low bandwidth users. Also, keep the maximum size to 110 x 110 pixels.)

your avatar is 200px × 113px 6.76 KB

So has always been against the rules, but as they were applied manually, you slipped through the net.
resize to within the guidelines and the site will allow it.

Hope this helps.
