Did you set permissions for the picture? It's not viewable, even after logging on into my Yahoo account.

Synodontis njassee looks like this:

Apart from all kinds of finer marks like humeral process and so on, the five easiest ways to spot if they are the genuine thing are:
#1: -normal eyes (not big like eupterus, but not tiny either like petricola)
#2: -stretched build
#3: -white whiskers!(nigrita, eupterus and the like have dark whiskers)
#4: -EVERY part should be spotted in the same way, including all fins. Most Tangsyno's for example have black fins or fins with a white edge on front or back.
#5: -normal mouthshape; no enlarged upperlip or 'suckerlike' mouth.
