How do some of you people have such clear avatars while abiding by the pixel/file size constraints? Are there some techy tricks that I don't know about? I have a 4.0 megapixel camera, and I can't imagine everyone else has one of higher resolution.

It's all about how much you're trying to show
 
Also if your avatar is like real color as opposed to just 256 colors it's going to be bigger.

Use photoshop or the like to make it 72 dpi and fit the pixel width/lengths.

You can always become an SDN angel/donor, I think it gives you a larger avatar in file size and dimensions. Something like that...
 
Jus' say the magic word :)
