Let me apologize in advance for being a very inexperienced user. Can someone explain to me how I can remove the avatar from my blog block as well as explain to me how to re-size the avatar. Currently, it's humongous! If you want to see what I'm talking about, go to www.goinlupi.com/blog. It stacks up along the right of the box and looks awful. Please explain as though you were talking to someone who is clueless -- because you are indeed talking to someone who is clueless.
Thank you.

First, I'm going to assume that you are a creative type. I work with newspaper editors and I can't even begin to explain to them that online news does not get punny, funny, cute, or witty titles. Titles should always relate to content that is on the other side, to the content the web surfer will see after they have to wait for the page load. Bait and switch doesn't work online. Just make sure that titles are straight forward and honest.
If it was titled How do I remove a profile picture from a blog or how do I change the size of a profile picture you will have a better chance of getting an answer.
Excellent point, but not
Excellent point, but not helpful in this case.
The quick fix would be to get the file at http://goinlupi.com/sites/default/files/pictures/picture-4.png and resize it to the size you want. But if you will have other people posting and other avatars, you may want to install the imagecache module and make a preset to resize images to the size you want. That way, when they upload big pictures, a small version will be created as well. And then you can tell your blog content type to use the sized image.
