I have the same problem with the moodle site (http://moodle.org). But I could actualize my image profile in my local site. I associated the problem to the configuration of the firewall I have to pass to access the internet, but I didn't make any more test to confirm this hypothesis. Do you have any firewall to access your site? Check its configuration to see if this can be the issue.

Just tried to upload my profile picture in moodle site from home (without firewall) and it didn't work. And I can't change the parameters: I'm not an adminstrator of the moodle site.
In my site I could upload my profile picture without any problem.

If your moodle is version 1.6 go to Administration -> Configuration -> Variables and find slasharguments: change it to other value.

I had the same problem, but fortunately I am using a Moodle partner for my hosting. The answer in my case was " your site was set to show that the GD library was not installed (in the server settings, system paths). I re-enabled it and tested your picture profiles work fine now."
