Was meinst Du mit der Graphik? Das Icon oder den Splashscreen?
Änderungen im other/source/ Ordner sind nicht wirksam, Du mußt ggf die entsprechende ini aus dem obigen Ordner direkt neben die xxxPortable.exe legen und entsprechend editieren, das Icon wird bei gePAFten Anwendungen in 1.2RC aus der app/appinfo gelesen?

As far as I know, it's stored in the launcher.
You mean the splash screen, right? The graphic that shows the app's logo and the PortableApps.com logo? We call that a splash screen, and as far as I know it's stored in the launcher (e.g. FirefoxPortable.exe for Firefox).
It would be nice if the splash screen could be edited directly, but using an external image might be problematic somehow. Not sure on that but IIRC that was the practice at one time, but no longer.
The splash screen is compiled into the launcher by NSIS. If you want to change it, you'll need to change the image and then recompile it using NSIS. After that it should work.

Was it always like that?
I could have sworn, when I first started using PortableApps, that I was able to get at the image for the splash screen. Did it always have the image compiled into the launcher, or did it used to keep it separate?
You can always get at it, it's just you'll need to recompile it to change it.
I believe that it has always been the case.

You need the NSIS registry plugin.

There's also a few utilities where you can change the image in-place, i.e. Resource Hacker. It doesn't require you to recompile, just to find the right image and replace it.
Not sure it would work though, considering image sizes, pixel references, and such...
This won't work (as has been explained) as the executable stores a Cyclic Redundancy Checksum (CRC). If the file is changed (e.g. bad download) it won't run.
