All the other images inside system_plugin.rco with names starting with '''tex_notification_*''' are icons intended to be displayed inside notification window (13 images in total)
Note how both, the text and the icon, are refered by his name in the code below
 
'''The frame''' of the notification window itself (a grey square with a darkest grey border that is scaled accordingly with the text displayed)... is loaded from the same .rco and is named '''tex_notification.png'''... this image can be replaced by using a [[PlayStation 3 Theme (P3T)|Theme]]
 
Note how the text (msg_error_console_hot_pls_restart) and the icon (tex_notification_caution), are refered by his names in the code below
