I had forgotten about these for a long time, but I just started using them again. I was surprised by how many people don't know about them. Some of them are pretty spiffy...
Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't know of any other ways to see them other than by editing your eqclient. I always wondered why Sony didn't make a bigger deal about these - some of them look better than the new models IMHO :p
Anyway, I just finished making a guide for players on my server to use these textures. There are some screenshots there, also, if you are curious.

I was also curious to see how many people were aware of these; if it was just a coincidence that the last few people I mentioned it to had no idea what I was talking about, or if it really isn't common knowledge.
