Mod Name / Version: Prevent avatar pics from stretching to the max allowable size after editing personal prefs (editbasic.php).

Description: This is a bug-fix which prevents avatar pics from *stretching to the maximum allowable image size after a user makes changes to their personal prefs page, but where they don't upload a new avatar.

*In order for the stretch to occur, their avatar pic must have been originally smaller (width and/or height) than the max allowable size. If it was already larger (both width & height), then no stretching would have occured since it gets set to the maximum size anyway.
