Avatar, not to be confused with the movie with blue aliens, is an image used to represent yourself on a forum, Twitter, Facebook, etc. It can be a picture of yourself, a logo you like or any number of things that represents something about you.
People new to social media are sometimes confused by the term avatar. For Twitter and Facebook, the avatar should be your company logo - that way the Facebook/Twitter post is easily recognizable while enforcing and enhancing branding of the name and logo.
The Avatar is what people will see and associate with you when scanning through their social media - so you want it to be identifiable and recognizable.
If you are unsure what you should do for your page's Avatar or your Twitter Feed Avatar, I highly suggest looking at other, similar Twitter Feed and Facebook pages, then go from there. If you still aren't sure, consult with others. You'd be surprised what people will suggest that just might work.
