Course portraits.
Horse portraits.
Race-day banners and big screen sponsor.
New trophy layout, blackboard, betting slip and newspaper.
New button layout, with return to text identification.
Top right mini-pics altered and a bunch of the little icons switched out. (All fairly self explanatory, the only one worth clarifying is the dvd at the bottom of the resultcard, which is now the replay button.)
SO5 desktop icon. (Requires manual change)

(The one issue is in some screens, mainly the entries screen and the horse profile page, the menu buttons across the top get are downsized to fit the layout{last two pictures}. That makes the text somewhat ineligible, but I'm hoping Mark can maybe implement a little zoom tool to return them to normal size, when you hover the cursor over them)

Download link - http://www.mediafire.com/file/94eh2r8b5hbmt00/gfx.zip

To install, go to C:/ > PROGRAM FILES(x86) > STARTERS ORDERS 5 >
Copy the new gfx folder from the download, and paste it into the above location; Agree replace/overwritten all files when asked.

(Gfx mods do not effect existing games and should take effect immediately)

That's the two Frankel backgrounds. I haven't done them in any of widescreen modes yet, but both can be found at some point on google images under a 'Frankel guineas' search and then just resized appropriately.

Pumped to get this in when I get home from work, will these need to be reapplied when patching??

Nope, the patches generally relate only to the data folders and any gfx issues, like text clarity or the location of stuff, is hard-coded so wouldn't effect any of the files included above.

Sorry for being a dummy but where do I put the Frankel pics please?

For some reason the Frankel one starts with a gmx folder, which should in fact be gfx, I'll need to change that (link to corrected version now up), but for now Bill, just rename that folder to gfx manually.
All my downloads should either start with a gfx folder or a data folder. All the branches inside that will take care of themselves to keep things simple, so all you ever need to do is copy the gfx folder or data folder (in the case the gfx one) and pop it into C:/ > PROGRAM FILES(x86) > STARTERS ORDERS 5 >
then agree to replace/overwrite all relevant files when asked.
