Well today I tried to make an avatar package.

I looked at others avatar packs to make sure I do everything right,yet it still says it can't install...

I will attach the zip so maybe someone else could tell me why it won't work.

Because the Package Manager can only accept packages that are under 2MB in size. Your is currently 4MB. Try either shrinking the images or reducing the number.

Ahhh okay.

The other comment I'd add is that forcing users to download half a megabyte for an avatar is pretty horrendous for anyone on a lower speed connection, not to mention painful on your bandwidth.
