However, I then discovered a SweetFX profile on the Dark Souls Nexus and it changed the way my game looks entirely. Stunning is the word that comes to mind. Just beautiful. Having said that, I'm currently in the Painted World of Ariamis and can't get out until I complete the area or attend to the boss (there's a choice whether to kill or not) so I'm looking forward to seeing the forest and other areas like Anor Londo.
Anyway, here are a few initial screenshots. They have black borders at top and bottom and I'm not sure what the reason is, but I'll look into that some other time, maybe.
My character in the Gold Hemmed Black Set which has high poison and fire resistance which I need in the Painted World. Upgraded Balder Side Sword and Crest Shield. I swap between different sets of weapons, armour and shields as necessary.

Undead Dragon...spews poisonous fumes. Easily killed with an upgraded bow. (might be a bit dark)

Kindling the flame. One of the rare times I'm human form instead of wrinkly undead.
