thanks... maybe i'll try that later (adding Xface header and posting from TB)

is anyone doing that (and posting from TB) ?

please don't post binary here. BTW, that's not an x-face. Gmail has its
own profile images internal protocol.

TB doesn't support natively Faces/X-Faces, but I can remember people
getting and decoding header's content with Autoit, then visualizing it
with an always on top, transparent viewer app. maybe some scripting guy
is reading here, and willing to help.

adding an X-Face header is easy on any given NR i believe.

Exactly. The header is easy, decoding and displaying is what takes work.

Yes, it does. That's how I do it in my web interface software. I just mean
that the code is easy to write to allow a user to populate a new header
with a string, but it takes more work (in the code) to decode the string
and display the x-face.

Yeah.
I will say tho, this xface was a pain to set up because I had to
escape a ton of % and \ chars to get it to send properly.

Interesting. Apparently it (whatever software) is or is willing to exectute
things from this string. Hopefully it's just something you needed to do
once and done :)
