[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
For some reason, now Gnus v5.13 in GNU Emacs 23.3.1
(i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) on Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 3,
refuses to invoke the (gnus-face-from-file ...) function correctly in
~/.gnus.el.
The following code in my ~/.gnus.el file apparently fails at file
conversion of a .jpg file to a face file:
(setq gnus-posting-styles
'((".*"
(name "Benjamin L. Russell")
("Face"
(gnus-face-from-file "~/butterflyLang.jpg")
))))
Strangely, the following code does work at the same task:
(setq gnus-posting-styles
'((".*"
(name "Benjamin L. Russell")
("Face"
(gnus-face-from-file "~/butterflyLang.jpg")

))))
The following procedure reproduces this bug:
1. Invoke Emacs in Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 3, by
double-clicking on C:\emacs\emacs-23.3\bin\runemacs.exe.
2. Within Emacs, type the following command:
> M-x gnus RET
3. Within Gnus, subscribe (if not already subscribed) to the news.test
newsgroup.
4. Within Gnus, type the following command to post a new message:
> a
5. Compose a test message, with subject, say, "test," and subject body,
say "test."
6. Send the message with the following command:
> C-c C-c
7. After a few seconds, refresh the newsgroup with the following
command:
> / N
8. Read the test message just posted. The message will be missing the
face header, which should be an icon placed immediately to the left of
the sender name in the "From" field of the message.

Yup. So I don't think this is a bug in Gnus.
And the built-in ImageMagick functions (which it could be using,
theoretically) don't really allow you to do stuff like that, because it
doesn't expose the required interface. It's more display-oriented.
