Well, you might try to make Sandstone actually fit to something for once (Meaning - it always stands out as far as i noticed in texture packs)
I am looking for a better texture. Will of course find another than the current one, but hey.. it's better than nothing =)
Thanks for all positive comments, it's really nice =D
And thanks for feedback, it helps.

You could either use the previous placeholder tex (The yellow cobblestone) and just add brown 'veins', or at least make it darker (Wikipedia calls it "Mortar", not sure if that clears up what i mean).
I'd also like to express that i still think it's wrong to use Dvan's textures without permission.
Suggestions:
Change the Sandstone texture
Place grass on the sides of blocks
Go back to red TNT

I will add grass to the sides of the dirt block =)

I'm sorry, i can't draw textures like that.. =/ I just take parts from different packs and put them together. I could give it a shot though.
And, i added a "Thanks to" part to the thread, with his name and thread in it, i'm hoping that will be enough. After he completly re-did the pack, i hated the new stuff, so i decided to make my own pack. But when i saw many others complaining, i decided to upload it to them, so they wouldn't complain on his pack. I could keep it all to myself, but i wanted everyone else to enjoy it too, so i uploaded it.

I did the same thing, but i kept mine off the net, i'm touchy about copyrights.
You don't really have to draw it at all, you can just play with it for a while like i did. Here, let me show you:
To be perfectly honest, you already did the hardest job of getting the base hue right.

First of all, thanks for the help.
I just finished a huge PM to DVan asking for allowance to use his pack, as i really don't want to be rude towards him. He made the pack, and I merely puzzled with it.
Anyway, i was just about to draw the texture, but i wrote the PM first. Your sandstone looks really good, and i was going to do the same thing. Is there a possibility of allowing me to use half of that texture? I would like to add normal sand on the top, but "cobble-sand" on the sides and under it.

Kris
That's great, hope he responds quickly.
Well if DVan gives you the green light, i'll happily send you the whole thing with my full blessing. Though i would like to strongly request a frame of sorts on the top of the sandstone block. I mean, i feel it should be distinguishable from regular sand. Say, something like this or this?
I'm shocked at how easy it is to fiddle with this stuff compared to games with actual graphics. Ok, i need to sleep off this fever before i get more delusional than usual.

I like the second one the most. I was planning on making it just like the 16x16 one, with normal sand on top, and the top sides of the block being a little sandy. So i'll probably use yours untill i find one looking like that. =3
Thanks anyway, and here.. take a pill for the fever
I created a forum account just so I could thank you for this texture pack! I loved the B&B one but there were too many unaddressed issues :/
Please please please add grass to the sides of grass blocks! It'll look much better :]

Hey, thanks =D
I'm actually doing that RIGHT NOW =D
So, expect a new version in the next minutes. =)
Just a quick word regarding the use of DVan's work: I think you're doing absolutely the right thing. You've tried to get in touch with him. His texture pack has become all but unusable, and someone needs to take over. No way this worthwhile project should die, just because its originator can't or won't speak up.
I know copyright doesn't tend to work that way, any more. But copyright is totally broken. Many great works are now trapped in 'copyright limbo,' after being abandoned by their creators (for whatever reason). But it's highly debatable that this sort of draconian copyright would apply in this case. There's not much 'intellectual property' in a few textures that were heavily based on Notch's originals, and were given away for free in any case. This is a small community project, not a Hollywood blockbuster.
Bottom line, you're working in good faith, for the benefit of a lot of devoted users. Nothing to apologize for. If and when DVan reappears, he should be grateful that you've kept his seat warm.

To be fair though, were something locked in "copyright limbo" there's always a million ways to outdo it and make new stuff.
Still, if there's credit where credit is due...
Taking donations for someone elses work is not very classy though.
If i SOLD the pack, it wouldn't be "classy". There is nothing wrong with taking Donations. I use time and effort too on this pack you know. It's not THAT easy to find the perfect textures for the pack and put them in it. The thing about donations is that it's optional. You don't HAVE to donate, and it's fine if you don't. Stil, if they want to thank me for actually working on this pack, and giving it to others, it would me nice with a donation.
Suggestions:

Place grass on the sides of blocks
Go back to red TNT
The sandstone texture WILL be changed, i am looking for the right one to change it with.
I will add grass to the sides of the dirt block =)
And, i will go back to red TNT =)
Anything else? =D
Maybe define the individual bricks in a cobblestone block a bit more? Looks pretty good the way it is though. Great job on the newest update.

As soon as you find diamond.
You run.
You run fast.
You run not caring what else is back there.
You run because creepers know you found diamond.
You run because lava knows you found diamond.
Run.

I'll have a look into it. =)
I will be uploading Version 1,4 soon too. Not sure when, because my internet is VERY unstable atm, i have no idea why, but it keeps turning off when i go into minecraftforums.net.. =/
Anyway, as said, i will look into it =)
Thanks for feedback. =)
Hey i just downloaded the pack, and i gotta say that i am lovin' it. And the health bar makes me all happy in my pants.
You sir deserve these.
Of this pack.
You could either use the previous placeholder tex (The yellow cobblestone) and just add brown 'veins', or at least make it darker (Wikipedia calls it "Mortar", not sure if that clears up what i mean).
I'd also like to express that i still think it's wrong to use Dvan's textures without permission.
...But that's just my opinion.
My DeviantART, requests welcome.

Need textures for your mod? Inquire within, just read the rules.
