Well eariler today the one you had was ok for me, i can only guess that you changed it this morning hence is why i am not getting the warning now.
You can also always save the image to your computer and use that as your avatar on here, then it will not try to connect to the site to get your avatar as it will be hosted here instead. This also allowes you to resize the image to something better if the original is not ok.
