Any ideas?

Northman is the one to ask. I tried and could not get it to go up on your account but it worked fine on mine. I could find no reason why.

This file is about 4 kb so it should have no troubles uploading. I have pm'd Northman and hopefully he can be of assistance soon, this is quite bizarre though.

Here is what I found out.
 
Reading the error in the first post carefully, its evident that the problem is not related to the avatar, but to the signature - or more correctly, the two in combination. 
A part of the signature appears as a part of the code which generates the error - but only in combination with an avatar.
I removed the signature, uploaded the avatar without troubles... but when I replaced the signature the error was there again. The signature was simply interpreted by the forumsoftware as code, more specifically the very first word "It's".
Changing "It's" to "It is" solved the problem.
 
Just typing this explanation for possible future reference.

Thankyou very much Northman, for the life of me I couldn't work out what the problem could be. Who ever thought computers could be so evil!

Thanks for the analysis.
 
I wonder what if the signature is in Chinese characters, how would it be interpreted by the forumsoftware?Pig
