Are you still seeing this error when you try to upload your "avatar"?  I am assuming are referring to your Personal Icon and not your Personal Photo.

You assumed right and yes, as of posting time it is still the same error.

OK. Works in Firefox 1.5.0.4

Yes, this appears to just be a problem between Opera and our code.  We will be working on a fix for this.
