⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Does exactly what it says—no more shadows on item icons, clean and simple
- Comes with a patch for Informative Convenient Soul Icons, so you don't have to choose between mods
- Lightweight and easy to install, just drop it in your Data folder
👎 Cons
- Only 17 endorsements, so it's a niche mod that hasn't been widely tested
- Last updated in 2018, so it might not work with the latest Skyrim version or other UI mods
- No screenshots or detailed instructions, so you're flying blind on what exactly changes
