Last night I uploaded a new avatar and my old avatar is still showing in my posts but when I go to edit profile, my new avatar is there but when I clicked to remove image, it showed my old one again and then the button said "undo."

This is probably going to sound sarcastic but I mean this sincerely, play with it lol

It seems bugged, I tried it just now and it worked but I have had trouble with it before, I couldn't locate the problem so I can't help more other then confirm that there is an issue of some kind. Oh course, usual tech support applies (example - try different browser, reset everything, clear cookies and internet history, etc). Also I would try to delete the image completely and reupload after doing the above.

I was able to delete the image but it won't let me upload a JPE file and I have no idea how to make it something else and none of the other two options worked because they couldn't recognize the link or something.

Can you link me the file?

I can convert it to something else or at the least play with it.

JPE and JPG are more or less the same, you can try to rename the file without converting it and it may work. Also you can try a reverse image search and try another version of the same avatar. Additionally, make sure it is under 130x130 pixels and under 4 MBs though there is something else going on if its that big.

Im more surprised when something actually works on this site as opposed to not, so many bugs or other technical problems

I've been getting logged out like every 10 minutes
