Go to morrowind summit. It's got a weird url so just google it. I highly recommend getting combat enhanced (special moves for each weapon type, bullet time. My longblade is about 75 and it let's me do a combo that knocks people's swords out of thier hand.), the big ranged patch thing if your an archer (you might want to be once you check it out), and if you have dsl or such get the complete GIANTS mod. It gives like 300 new creatures. Stuff like trolls, dragons, goblins, dogs. Everything. The bad thing is it's 50mb. If you have a modem weasel a friend with dsl to download it for you and put it on a disk. that's what I did. :)
It took a while for you to find me; I was hiding in the lime tree.

There are a few body enhancements available. Most of them also make the characters completely naked when not wearing clothes (sounds redundant, but I mean you don't even get the ugly brown underwear anymore).

One is called Better Bodies. This one makes models amazingly smoother and more realistic. The drawback is that the new models can't wear most old clothing properly and will clip through it in places. This can be solved by looking for clothes mods based on the better bodies models. There are many of these, though the majority are female.

Another that is less impressive but still conforms to the old Bethesda clothing is called (I think) Smoother Bodies or Smooth Bodies. Something to that effect.

You can also get mods to replace the textures used in Better Bodies to get rid of the nudity. Generally it's replaced by kinky minimalist underwear though, so... whatever you prefer, both options will offend someone.

You can also download mods to enhance the environment, changing most of the exterior textures and trees in the game. Note that these types of mods are considerably harder to run with any stability, so only do so if you have a decent (~3ghz, 64mb+ 3d card) system.

Telesphoros has made a huge list of mods that have actually been tested, each with a short summary. Both Better Bodies and Smoother Bodies are listed, as well as many accessories for BB.

Summit and TheLys are good, as Crimson mentioned. The Summit probably has the largest number of mods in one place on the web. TheLys carries many of the better mods by some of the best authors. Here are a few more sites:

Euro-Morrowind has many great mods that aren't available anywhere else. Unfortunately they have no descriptions to speak of and the search/browse feature really sucks. So you have to know what you're looking for to get anything out of this site.

Gamer's Roam requires free registration (no catch) and carries some obscure older mods and stuff by Emma. Like a weaker version of Summit, but carries a few they don't.

Official Mods Forum is on the Bethesda site and all the most popular modders announce their releases (REL) and works in progress (WIP) here first, as well as where to get them. They can also answer questions about almost any mods in existence, barring some extremely obscure ones or those that have been banned from most sites (such as the abortion clinic mod).

Emma and Grumpy have made some of the best companion mods available, if you're looking for company on your adventures.

(sorry for the long post, hope it helped)

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion will have custom character builders with the models. You just have to wait a year...

No, as I've had to say repeatedly at the ES Forums, there is no release date yet. A december 2005 date has been largely considered impossible, and arround late 2006 is what's largely being believed. Sorry to interrupt here...
