You are using extensions, aren't you?

profile pictures are usually around the size of 30-60 pixels in width and length. however, your profile picture is only 16 pixels wide and long. the method used to scale up the profile picture probably finds the averages of each pixel and tries its best to not make the picture look blocky, which works well for stuff like photos, but not so much with pixel art.
maybe remake the gif, but at a bigger size? in some art programs there's a way to resize things by “nearest neighbor” or “jaggies”, which doesn't blur the image. this is also what ms paint uses to scale selections.

(btw the open source projects forum is about discussing scratch's source code. maybe questions about scratch would've fit more? not sure)

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

You're welcome.

Since it seems that your topic is now resolved, I recommend you close it to prevent necroposting.

You can close a topic in one of two ways:

• If the topic has been open for more than 24 hours, there will be a “Close topic” button at the bottom of the page, below the “Submit” button.
  
• If you want the topic to be closed sooner, you can report the first post and ask for it to be closed (reports can be used for more than just reporting inappropriate content). You can also use the report function to ask for a topic that you put in the wrong place to be moved, or for a topic that you closed by accident to be opened again.
