| What about creating a new, improved standard instead? The X-Face thing 
| is rather dated. A picture with a couple of bitplanes would be nice

In a web connected world, I think it would make a lot more sense to
put the face on a server somewhere and just point to it with the header.
Just my two cents, but I can't see the faces anyway, so nevermind ... ;-)

                                        Cheers,
