There are no requirements to have a larger avatar, it is actually the 'badge.'

There are two parts to your Avatar Badge. The small one at the top left and the larger background one.

You already know how to change the little one, to change the background one, click on My Settings at the top of this page

Social Connect tab

Click Display profile badge

Browse for and upload a picture, choosing small is usually the best option, unless you really know what you are doing.

Hit Save.

Here is the link to the first user tutorial on how to make it:
