Good to see you're okay, Misa. Just take your time.
In regards to this texture pack, I can wait for an official update... 'cause that's what I've been doing so far (since 1.4). Still hoping Mojang finally releases updates for things, like more underwater content. Even still, I can't play MC with mods and your texture pack, so for now I'll just continue waiting.
Welcome back Misa! I don't post much here, but if it were not for your work, I would not have stayed with the game and it's bizarre stock "art" I know I have to be patient, but looking forward to you having the opportunity to get the next update underway. I know all too well the stress you're enduring with the money and and move and will seek out that donate link on payday.
BTW, GLSL Shaders is now OptiFine-independent. It's compatible with OptiFine, but it doesn't require it. It also doesn't require Forge or FML (for now). Does this mean you might continue supporting GLSL Shaders again?
So glad to hear you're back Misa! I called like 5 people after finding out just to tell them!
I can't wait to see what you do for some of the new assets!
Glad your life has smoothed out enough to rejoin us!
Welcome back, Misa! I stopped playing Minecraft entirely until your return...why bother, right? Now it looks like we're in business again. Yay! Thanks in advance for all the hard work you will probably endure putting together a new release.
Welcome back Misa! I've been using your pack for the past few months (I think I started just as you started your move and such, actually) and I absolutely love it. Thanks for all the effort you've put in, and I look forward to anything new you can find the time to add.
I am a patient person, excited for you to update in the future. My minecraft just isn't the same without this pack. It is and always has been my favorite pack.
All the different Wolves and Chickens I know this pack must of took a long time. Sucks its not updated and I can't play with it
Go back and read through the thread to understand why it's not currently updated. If you do, you'll also know that there's an interim, volunteer-led, 3rd party patch that makes it quite playable until Misa can get back to working her visual magic.
I loaded up the 1.7.9 Optifine preview last night and it worked great with the combo of Misa's 1.6.2 pack and Pscof42's Misa Patch. Great as in when you start playing at 9pm and suddenly it's 2am.

I love the combination of Pscof42's patch and Misa's pack. Difficult at times to tell whose work is whose.
I eagerly await Misa's continuation of this pack, but by no means is it unplayable, or even as jarring as seeing the default textures.
To clear up a little confusion that seems to have arisen by my return to the forums, I'm only back in the sense that I have regular access to the Internet again. For those who don't want to go back and read my giant walls of text, here's a summary list of things that are preventing me from working on the pack right now:
-My computer's dying and needs to be replaced as it can no longer run Minecraft on the latest versions.
-My editing tools all need to be set up again from scratch as my work hard drive was one of the first things to go.
-I am unemployed and am in process of trying to set up a stable source of income.
-Various other real-life issues I'd rather not go into.
A more recent update on that is that I may be moving YET AGAIN to another state this summer. This will hopefully help a lot with the stable source of income, but at this point I have no idea how much free time I'll have since I'll probably be going to school as well. As it is, I'm in sort of a purgatory of having more free time than I should have, but having no means to run Minecraft or work on the pack. The free time is likely to diminish though as the new move draws near. So for awhile, this really is still your best option for playing with my pack on the latest versions of Minecraft: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2251774-
Once again I'd like to thank those who have been showing and giving me their support in this chaotic period in my life. I probably can't apologize enough for not knowing when I'll actually be able to get back to work on the pack. I can only reassure you that it's not something I've given up on. Just don't take that to mean that it's coming soon, because at this point I really cannot tell when it's coming.
Also as an aside, I'm still slowly working my way through a huge backlog PM's, many of these are hard to answer as the time they were sent seems to imply that they were time-sensitive in response. So if you've sent any permission requests or other messages in the past that I have not answered but still require a response, you may get a faster response if you re-send them or send an updated version of your previously sent message.
Just taking a moment to wax poetic about the beautiful wolves/dogs/puppies in this pack.
Good luck with your second move Misa, and with fixing your computer problems. If you need any help with the latter (hardware or software-related), I'm happy to help in any way I can. That's about as close as I have to an area of expertise.

I really feel sorry for you ): I hope you a good future, Thanks for everything you've done, I hope you get back to texturing soon (Not rushing, I'll just miss your textures :P)

Put up a paypal link (if that's allowed on these forums?). I'm sure there are 400 people who all use this pack that would be willing to donate 2 dollars each. A computer capable of running photoshop and minecraft needn't cost more than 5 or 6 hundred dollars, and we can probably scrap that much up between us, even with paypal's fees deducted. I know I've gotten more than two dollars of enjoyment out of the work you've freely posted:).

I already have a donation link up on my main post. However it's more a matter of priorities and smart management of finances than needing the immediate cash to build a new computer. As it is, any little bit of extra money I make that isn't used for current living expenses is being set aside in an emergency fund that is going towards covering costs for the second move. Moving across the country can really add up if you're not careful, and there's almost always unforeseen expenses that can just pop up on you when you least expect it. Having a home is more important than having a computer that can work on a texture pack.
In regards to my computer, I use it for way more than just running Minecraft and my editing software (I don't use Photoshop). I was pretty much raised on computers (Atari 800 was my first PC) in a time before the concept of a computer in every home was even a thing, before Windows was commercially available, and before the Internet even had graphics and was nothing but a series of Usenet BBS's and IRC. I built my first PC in the late 80's before ATX came along and made that process much more foolproof. All this is sufficed to say I've been using computers for so long and before they became as user-friendly as they are that I probably know more about them and have more uses for them than most people at this point.
With all the things I use my computer for, I pretty much need a build that's completely overkill to save money in the long-run. That's how I've built the last few PC's I've used, and this last one has lasted and served me well for nearly 8 years despite costing me a high (at the time) $750 (with a ton of rebates and sale deals). This machine, despite being so old, is still capable of running most applications/games upper mid-ranged PC's are capable of. Unfortunately it's still running on 32-bit architecture which in recent years is showing its age with most modern applications--Java, and by proxy, Minecraft among them. To upgrade my OS on this hardware would be a complete waste though as it's completely optimized for 32-bit and would be considered fairly low-end as a 64-bit system. That and my sound card is pretty much busted and my hard drives have beat their statistical predicted lifespan twofold. Everything's pretty much overdue for replacement.
All that said, please do not donate money to me expecting it to go towards building a computer that'll allow me to work on the pack. I already feel a little guilty receiving donations when I haven't done much of any work on the pack in nearly 9 months. Just be patient. Things should hopefully settle down for me after this second move, which I'm also predicting will go much more smoothly than the previous.

Aw well, I donated a few dollars to your upcoming move anyway;). Here's hoping you manage to find a decent school/job combo.
I work and go to school myself (as well as having a 9 month old baby), so I know it can be exhausting at times.
