Hey!

I've seen lots of groovy and not so cool personal icons or avatars in
the upper left hand corner of posts reading the groups with
MT-Newswatcher 3.5.2 latest version. How you get your pic of choice
(.gif, .jpg, .tif, .png or whatever) to appear in that spot?
Thanks for your help!

Search for X-Face in the online manual.

It's called an X-Face. Read about it here:

E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM
filter. Due to Google's refusal to prevent spammers from posting
messages through their servers, I often ignore posts from Google
Groups. Use a real news client if you want me to see your posts.
