That's what I was going to do originally, but then I looked at my profile picture on en wiki[1] I saw this message:
"Do not copy this file to Wikimedia Commons. While the license of this image or media file, uploaded and used on (a) Wikipedia contributor(s) user page(s), may be compliant with Commons, its usefulness to other projects is unlikely. It should not be copied to Commons unless a specific other usage is anticipated." I took that to mean that profile pictures in general were discouraged from being placed in commons. If that's the case, then it makes sense for profiles on meta to have the same policy.
