It seems as though you already have an avatar with a transparent background.
Maybe he wants what I have, the subject only, as opposed to the subject and a slightly blueish background.
What image-editing software do you have at your disposal? Photoshop? GIMP? Something else? Saving the file as a .png will allow you to maintain the transparency, and if you use your software's "Save for Web" option it's easy to get it under the 10 kb file size.

I have photo shop cs4 and gimp
Use the "magic wand" tool to select the background colour.
Then click Delete, then save the image as "name.PNG".
It should then be transparent.
In Photoshop, click File > Save for Web & Devices. The file size is shown in the bottom left corner. Mess around with the quality settings until you've got a file just under 10 kb.

I did that and it worked but when I uploaded it to bricks in motion it did not have transparency and the image quality looked really bad.
I'll upload it again so you can see
