Avatars must be at least 20 pixels wide and 20 pixels high, but no larger than 125 pixels wide and 125 pixels high. When i do it make like that i mess up big time.

when you resize you have to make sure the ratio is the same.

Example: you shorten the width of a picture by 10 pixels. to make it even you have to shorten the hight by 10 pixels.

and here is a picture for your avy

It does that because your original image is not a square. Not sure how you are going about it but if you are transforming it directly like that then you are bound to get distorted pixels.

Use your marque tool (holding shift) and select around the part of the image you want to use and then right click>copy layer.

Delete layer below. Image>Trim. ALT+Ctrl+i and select your image size.

Meh, beaten to it. Back to watching T.V
