Richard-

There is a newer Newswatcher. I think the latest is version 3.5.3b3.

had grief from the MT version in the past, and I don't killfile anyone so
I went back to the plain-vanilla version,

Rather than using a non-standard bitten apple as part of your name, why
not include an X-Face image in the headers? Under Special -
Personalities - Headers & Misc. - Signature & Headers - Extra News
Headers, paste the following into the box:

That image is the bitten apple. It will show up in the heading of your
messages for those people who have a news reader with X-Face capability.

You can paste that into a text file and name it with the suffix,
.x-face. (filename.x-face) If you drop that file onto
GraphicConverter,

it should open to show a large crude bitten apple.
When viewed small, it looks much better. GraphicConverter is capable of
creating additional x-face images.

It isn't in the preferences. "Special" is an item in the menu bar.

I also used NewsWatcher for a long time but eventually updated to MTNW.
So far there are no problems I've noticed. I can't speak for the latest
version used with an older OS.

Yes. It is a graphics app that has been around for a long time,
probably as long as NewsWatcher.

It seems that NewsWatcher-X (2.2.3b2) has a place in preferences called
"Extra Header Lines". I tried pasting my x-face there, and will soon see
if it will successfully post the image to this message!

It appears that 2.2.3b2 does not display x-face images like the newer
version does.

By the way, the MTNW has an asterisk by each thread where you have posted
a message. Even when collapsed, you can tell which threads to check for
replies. With your way, you can only recognize your posting when it is
the first one.
