As of this moment, all avatar privileges are restored. There is a maximum width and height of 150x150 pixels. For now, only staff members can upload animated avatars (to help ease server strain), but this may change in the coming weeks and/or months.
No, No, definitely not your fault i was just wanting like a animated barb or monk picture and i know bashiok had a fallen shamen one but i had one that showed the full body and everything.

Bashiok's avatar has to coordinate with his Battle.net one. Well, it doesn't have to, but it makes sense. He's not a staff member, though. That's a ghost account to use with the Blizz Tracker. (You probably knew that though :P)
I think animated avatars would be cool PWEASE LET US USE ANIMATED AVATARYS!!!!! lol

This was before I knew that it was a Staff-only thing, hence why he isn't using an animated ava atm.
