check admin settings,   also the avatar is reduces to 2 sizes on the page views.  45x45 for small and also 140x140 for normal avatar. 

 

From my own site experience remember there is no reason for anyone IMO to upload a huge 1mb photo for the avatar, it just takes up space and not required for resolution, a 25-50kb  image can look just as good for an avatar.  Teach users how to resize their images or offer to do it for them, you win both ways in the long run.

can you be more specific please.  What do you mean by size, ht wth or just more pixels?  What do you have in mind and are you having an issue with the default size ht wth?

Tomas, +1 to Dave's questions.
Your website URL to reproduce the issue along with the image you tried to upload could have helped a lot as well.

what about avatars imported from FB? Avatar small and big are the same size when a user connects with their FB account.
