    Avatar size?

    Hey, Phil or Jamie, How big is the avatar allowed to be? I thought I read somewhere that it was 64 x 64, but I can't figure out where I saw that. My newest avatar is 64 x 40, to keep the proper dimensions, and it looks so tiny, even in comparison with others' avatars. So am I doing something...
