Avatar not updating

[plastered]

I tried to change my avatar and after I hit "Save" i just get the default blank avatar.

I tried uploading jpg and png type images, I tried using a image from a link (imgur), and I tried uploading an image that was exactly 80x80 pixels and nothing ever happens.

I'm having a similar issue. Just joined this morning. Figure after weeks of reading I should actually try to utilize the plethora of knowledge on this site instead of just window shopping. ;-)
