Thanks for taking the time to submit this patch, unfortunately Gwibber has gone through extensive changes recently and your patch no longer applies to the latest codebase.
Fortunately, the bug you were attempting to fix is no longer present in the current codebase. Gwibber is still downloading large avatars for the benefit of the Unity lens and the Ubuntu Touch project, but they scale nicely and do not skew when being displayed in Gwibber.
Please try out the latest Gwibber, I think you'll be quite pleased with what we've accomplished.
