graphics for what? the item in your inventory? the item animations for it being held in a character's hand? Be specific!

misc.txt, weapons.txt and armor.txt all have an invfile column. That is what controls it. If you change those graphics, though, make sure the height and width values match the graphic used.

You can use any existing inventory graphics in the game for any item (there are a ton of unused graphics in the d2data.mpq file, by the way...most of them potion, treasure or body part oriented...though a few weapons are in there too).

You can make your own inventory graphics and insert them into the patch for use with items...check out the tutorial section of Phrozen Keep and you'll be able to learn more.
