I used the programs Photoshop CS3, and DDS converter - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8698.-First, converted the files
footfemale.dds => footfemale.psd (the body texture)
Lattamer.dds => Lattamer.psd (the head texture - in my case, a Lattamer)
-Open both files in Photoshop
-Click on the femalefoot.psd file
-Use the eyedropper tool, and take a sample near the neck line. This will give you the RGB values. Write these down on a piece of paper.
-Click on the "face".psd file
-Image>Adjustment>Levels [or simply ctrl+L]
-Use the eyedropper tool, and take another sample at the base of the neck (from the face texture).

1) Click on the open folder circled below:2) Double click on the box next to Oblivion.esm to select it....but do NOT make it an active file. Then press 'ok.' (the Oblivion file will take about a minute to load up)
3) Click the save icon (just next to the open folder icon which you clicked on in step #1), type anything you want...then click save. (to my bad memory, only use alpha/numeric characters)
4) In the "Object Window" Click on
[ - ] Items
[ + ] Clothing
...right click on any clothing, and click on new
5) I personally use a female only character outfit for this example (slashes' spb e-suit).....Click on "add nif file" in the ...

Then from the Drop-Down Box choose View load order:
On the list screen click the Disk Icon from the top menu bar:

Clean up your PCby Bben46
Many problems I see are related to overheating. Such as CTDs, video artifacts, sudden freeze which may or may not recover (not stuttering which is a very short pause)
The design of the PC contributes to this by sucking in dirty air through every small crevice in the case and depositing the dust on everything, especially fans.
To clean the pc, first power it off and UNPLUG it. There is power on your motherboard (5 volts)even when the power is switched off and a mistake can fry your motherboard and Power supply.
Most newer tower type PCs have a removable side, the left side when looking at the case from the front. Usually there are anywhere from one to three screws th ...

I wanted to post the story line of my mod to see what people thought of it, and to possibly give feedback on it.The Empire of Agileas
After the oblivion crisis strange things began happening to the Ayleid ruins across Tamriel. All life around the ruins have been exterminated, and now portals of a different nature are appearing... Rulers of an advanced society are looking for the people of a long dead race, claiming that they rebelled long ago and excaped to this realm. If these claims are true then the Aleids were a part of an even more dangerous empire that threatens to anihilate everything if the Ayleid rulers aren't handed over to them...
