     The gfx folder reference is for the DirectX client and JavaClient, only.

      Just create the directory:

  Actually, that should work for the x11 client just as well as for the 
gcfclient - the image caching/loading is common to both of those now, so both 
should do the same thing.

  Note, however, that using this gfx directory only works if you turn image 
caching on.  If image caching is off, the client never gets the name of the 
image from the server, and thus can't load it locally.  It could be that the 
gcfclient provides nicer front end to selecting cached images, but you can use 
something like -cache or -cache_images with the x11 client jsut as well.

  Note also that the file name does not include the base/clsc suffix.  Images in 
the gfx directory will be used no matter what the image set is - they override 
everything else.
