[OT]: Why is my Face header so ugly ?

Yo guys,

Just a question I didn't find (yet) an answer: why is my face header so
ugly ?

Compared to other I have seen, mine seems pretty ugly which annoy me ;)

Any idea ?

FYI, this header has been extracted from a real numerical photography
and converted using Lars advice.

Maybe I didn't follow the right piece of advice :/

I think it's pretty nice.  Painterly.

Using the gnus-fun functions for automatic conversion might not
always give you optimal results.  Playing around with the image in
the Gimp to get it down to the required size (726 bytes) might give
you something you're more satisfied with...

I guess, you mean the following comands, don't you?

,----
| djpeg face.jpg | ppmnorm | pnmscale -width 48 -height 48 | ppmquant 7 | pnmtopng > face.png

I used almighty Gimp to create my faces.

HTH,
