SquidMod - The most useless UI-mod in history. Since it doesn't enhance functionality really. It just makes the World of Warcraft prettier.

Update: [2006-04-10] A quick fix for patch 1.10.
Update: [2005-11-22] I have decided to halt development of SquidMod. With excellent mods such as Discord Mods and DiivSkins I feel that my time is better spent on other projects.
Update: [2005-10-13] New EndCap. Guardian (keyword "guardian") created by SinfulCreature. Compatible with patch 1.8.

Sick of that stupid griffon on the sides of the main menu bar? Wouldn't you rather have a cool looking octopus or murloc in it's place instead? Well, look no further cause the SquidMod is here!

Instructions
Unarchive the zip and place the SquidMod folder in your AddOns folder. Type /squid for a list of commands. /squid toggle will toggle the available end cap graphics.
You can now create your own banners or emblems - see the supplied README file. The template files are ideal for those who want to advertise your guild or yourself in your screenshots withouth the need to add a "watermark" later in an image editing application. Just take the screenshot and the Interface will be all you need to tell who has taken the screenshot.
