If the avatar is too large in size, the system will automatically reduce the image in size, which will break the animation. Try reducing the filesize. I will also increase the maximum allowed file size on our end. Try reuploading the same image again in a few minutes after I increase the size, and if that still doesn't work, you will need to reduce the image size.

And edit avatar.
