About this mod
Have you ever noticed how the default oblivion icon doesn't look that good and that if seen at more than 32x32 it really sucks? I decided to make a better one.

Description
===========
After some time playing Oblivion I started to get annoyed by the original Oblivion icon as it was 32x32 pixels, and quite blurry even at that resolution, so I decided to create one on my own. Then, since the final result looked pretty good, I decided to upload it here.
This file is a new icon for Oblivion: the base image is taken from the loading screen you see when you start the game (it's a texture in the Textures.bsa file in your oblivion data folder), cleaned of the old-paper-like background, added a transparency layer and resized it to fit various higher icon resolutions, like WinXP's 48x48, or Vista's (and 7's) 256x256 (see screenshots).
Install
=======
1. Extract the files to a temporary location (you will need 7-zip or WinRAR or another extraction tools compatible with the 7z format for this).
2. place the icon wherever you would like to.
3. use it for your Oblivion shortcuts (or everything else you would like to, like OBSE)
3.1: Setting an icon involves there steps: Right click->properties->Customize->Change Icon->Browse...->look for the icon and then click ok through everything.
Uninstall
=========
1. simply delete the icon and set all your links and folders back with their original icons.
History
=======
1.1, 2009/02/21 - corrected a few mostly unnoticeable minor issues with the previously not-so-clean alpha background, and repacked in a more "standard" (i.e. how every icon package I've seen is) way (16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 256x256 resolutions)
1.0, 2009/01/11 - Initial release.
