Standard web resolution is 72 dpi...300 is pushing the file size over and after the web projects your image at 72, the image is huge.

The limits are 145pixels x 145 pixels and file size limit of 750kb.

When I uploaded a replacement for mine, it took a few days before I saw it, so I don't know exactly how it works behind the scenes.
