The term stained glass refers either to the material of coloured glass or to the art and craft of working with it. Throughout its thousand-year history the term "stained glass" was applied almost exclusively to the windows of churches, cathedrals and other significant buildings.
Here are two windows, both in a N-S and E-W orientation.By looking at them in the Visual Effects Editor and use the TGA-files as template you can easily do your own. I recommend to use them with a faint light source and OEI's window-beam effects for most realistic look.

Something about HAKs, ERFs and the Override folder:
HAK-files are used to distribute Custom Content and are similar to an uncompressed zip-file. It can contain several files of different type which a module creator wish to distribute with her/his module. The *.hak files need to be placed into the hak folder and then be associated with the module via the Module�s properties dialog. Afterwards, the contents of the hakpak are available both in toolset and game.
ERF stands for Encapsulate Resource File. It is used when importing and exporting resources from one module to another. Most people keep .erf files in a folder in their My Documents folder called erf. Note that you don't get an erf folder by default, so feel free to created one when you need it.
The Override folder is used to override files in the original game. When a modified file are placed in it the game will use this file before the original file with the same name. Builders often use this folder during development of new content, before putting it into a HAK-file.
Careless use of the override folder can cause problems with the game.
