The pic under your forum name (Alfred E Neuman) is an AVATAR. It shows with each post.
The pic underneath your posts (4 vettes, strobe, etc) is called a SIGNATURE. It shows when you make a post, select the "show signature" check box.
The one you loaded is the PROFILE pic. It is ONLY seen when someone clicks on your forum name to see more info about you.
It appears you loaded the PROFILE pic with the intention of an AVATAR pic.
The avatar pic must be 150x150 and 29k or less. Give that a shot and see what happens

You go to the UserCP to change all three pics, Edit Avatar, Edit Signature, Edit Profile Pic. They are each slightly different on how they are used, so the mechanisms to upload and/or make appear are different. But the Avatar and Profile Pics use the same mechanism for upload.
