Right click the image > open with paint > Select all right click rotate 90 degrees until its correct way up then click save.

Upload a different image to steam must be completely different with a different name to reset it then restsrt steam and upload the new one. Steam bugs out with avatars its weird. Also if it says you cant change your avatar again then restart steam.

No wont work the avatar must be reset. You got any idea how many times i resiezed my logo to then upload a new default random image to reload a new resized image and have it work. I tryed 9 times b4 i reset my avatar and tried again and it worked after resettng jt. It is a bug with steam.

He said hes tried multiple times to rotate it. His avatar must be reset by getting a different image and uploading it and then getting the original one he wants and uploading that. Its weird.... its happened like 30 times with me when trying to make my logos fit

Either way steam some how remembers the image and thinks your uploading the same one so it does not chsnge it. So to fix that you must do as i said obove^^ :)

For example i upload a smaller version of my logo it may think im uploading the same one and not change it.
