To enable displaying picons, simply put the following line in your `~/.gnus' file and start Gnus.

(setq gnus-use-picons t)
(add-hook 'gnus-article-display-hook
          'gnus-article-display-picons t)
(add-hook 'gnus-article-display-hook
          'gnus-picons-article-display-x-face)

and make sure gnus-picons-database points to the directory containing the Picons databases.

Alternatively if you want to use the web piconsearch engine add this:

(setq gnus-picons-piconsearch-url
      "http://www.cs.indiana.edu:800/piconsearch")
