Gradient with a color map. Look them up in the documents.

The one you have is a good one, what do you not like about it?

"Danger" stripes would be easy, just a gradient pattern with a two-color
color_map. If you're asking how to do the color map:
color_map {
[0 Black]
[0.5 Black]
[0.5 Yellow]
[1 Yellow]
}

Why not shorten the list to just:
color_map {
[ 0.5 Black ]
[ 0.5 Yellow ]
}
?

Because that doesn't say what it does. I just prefer to always specify
the start and end, for readability...it would be easy to misread that as:
color_map {
[ 0.0 Black ]
[ 1.0 Yellow ]
}
And since Arlinghaus seems to be a fairly new user, I used the less
confusing, more verbose syntax.

You can also add turbulence to a gradient to "wiggle" the stripes a
little.

Concerning the newsreader: it depends what you want to do with it.
Reading the POV groups I use with much pleasure MicroPlanet Gravity;
it's not free. Indeed OE works OK too.
For binary groups I have been using the free and extraordinary fast and
versatile XNews; it is not well suited to read long and complicated
threads like the ones you find in POV...
