Ok, I have uploaded the UI. You can download it HERE.

I achieved the halo effect by "feathering" the mask by two pixels. Some items, such as the spider silk, end up looking very blurry because the halo was added to internal holes as well as the outside border of the objects. In general, light colored items end up looking fuzzy with a white border applied to them.

Some of the drag items butt up against each other in the .tga file, like the cards on dragitem12. How would you 'script' that out?

A clean version of this modification would require applying the halo to each icon separately in a 40x40 window and pasting them all together. It would take many hours to do this by hand, but it is possible someone could write a program or a script that would do it more quickly. I don't have access to the necessary tools to do this myself.

It took me about an hour to process all 26 dragitem images. Doing each icon by hand would probably take about 40 hours - so it is not going to happen.
