Dear board mods,
1) Can you raise the size limit for avatars? 6K is TINY. I got my headshot photo down to 9K by making it black and white, but I don't know how to make it smaller, and it's the image I use everywhere. A 40K limit would be great.
Allowing 100x100 images would be excellent too, since many of us will already have something that size.
2) I suggest making it clear during signup that usernames can have spaces and capital letters. I would have used "Rose Fox" if I'd known. Is there a way for me to change mine now that I've signed up?
Thanks!

I very heartily second the request for larger avatars. I spent a while hacking at mine so that it would fit the requirements.
In case it helps anyone else, I used this browser based image editor -http://pixlr.com/editor/ - to reduce the image size. It shows you the size the image will be before you save it, which is helpful.

Changes to avatar sizing done.
Hm. I will figure out how to do the note on the registration page. I didn't know you could have spaces either. rosefox, email me at my username at gmail and I'll coordinate a username change for you if you like.
