Note:

Because of some previously unseen problems caused by the new support for custom icons, the Opus installer now sets the NoIconTrickery registry value by default, to disable the new behaviour.

If you want to use custom icon sets with Opus you will need to locate this value in the registry as described above, delete it, and then restart Opus. (Note that setting it to zero isn't enough, you have to delete it or rename it.)
