This thread was a failure and I've learned a lot from it too. Just let it die and fall into the dust, because it should be on here in the first place.
[PLEASE NOTE: The pictures are very distorted. They do not resemble the form of the swords in-game. Trust me if they were like that I wouldn't release 'em at all. So more accurate photos would be coming soon, probably just from in game itself. Also, some blocks and the golden sword shall be redone. Thanks.]
Do you love the default textures of Minecraft but HATE the weapons?
I HAVE A SOLUTION!
BlueHawk007's Weapon Enhancements Pack! It changes the 5 swords of Minecraft from having the dried out dot design to some custom paint jobs!
This texture pack features: A disaster of a wooden sword! A elegant stone sword! A ruby encrusted iron sword! A Master Sword styled diamond sword!
and
A rich man's jewel encrusted gold sword! Sure it may not be that durable BUT, who doesn't want to use a sword THIS fancy!?
-- How to install-- This is the easiest method. 1) Log on to Minecraft and go to the main menu. 2) Click on the "Texture Packs" button. 3) Click "Open Texture Pack Folder" 4) Drag and drop the Texture Pack (It is a ZIP File) into the folder. 5) Choose the texture pack in the Minecraft menu and have fun!
I may update this in the future so it has more enhanced textures including but not limited to; Fishing rod, axe,pickaxe,shovel, and the hoe.
I hate both. Your weapons don't help at all. Why does the golden sword have a blue tip? That looks stupid.
All in all, just editing 3 textures from vanilla isn't worth posting a texture pack.

LOL. "Your weapons don't help at all." Are you expecting them to give special powers or something? xD
And, technically, I edited 5 textures and plan on editing more in the future. Also, maybe if focused more on actually saying "how to make it better" I'd take that comment seriously.

Misunderstand much? I meant that i dislike default, and i dislike your weapon textures. It's hard to be more specific when you have literally 5 textures, 4 of which is the same thing with different colors.
Speaking of colors, too much contrast and crazy colors, the wooden sword looks weird with that straight line at the end. And the blades look flat due to the shading. The gold sword is the worst. It looks like a candy cane rather than a weapon.

If you dislike default WHY would you even look at this pack then!? This was meant for people whom like default but don't like the weapons. Obviously, you didn't get why I posted this at all then.
well obviously to describe what the person thinks everyone has a right to criticise, if you cant take criticism take the pack down and save yourself from it. oh and personally I don't like it the swords are quite ugly and look like they were done on MS paint, the gold sword looks awful your banner doesn't look appealing either
My only problem with his original post was the fact that he didn't even give a reason or tell me how I could make it better. Also, this can't even be done on MS Paint because then you'd have white boxes around almost every texture in the entire game.

I'm not a 'him'. Just for future reference.
Again, with just 2/5 textures, it's hard to give any real critique, especially when you dislike the whole effect.
The swords in the images you have posted are STRETCHED. They look bent. Shift to constrain!
Also, you include ALMOST ALL of the texture files in the texture pack. You do not need to do this!
All you really need for this texture pack is \gui\items.png! Maybe a pack.txt and a pack.png as well.
But you don't need to include files you have not edited. If they aren't there, Minecraft loads them from the .JAR automatically.
If you include it, it can become outdated.

So you don't have to restrict it to just being a re-color.
Actually..... no. Items, just like textures in the terrain.png, are, by default, 16x16.
Both terrain.png and items.png are 256x256, with 16 spaces for textures. 256/16=16.
If any items are 32x32, the items are HD, and the compass needle and clock face will not position properly unless Minecraft is patched. Borders of items that can't be displayed in 16x will also bug out unless a fix is used.
However, just because they are 16x16 does not mean tools in texture packs should just be recolors.

sorry man but you did not improve the look off the swords.... vanilla looks much better. redo the hole thing, do it again do it right! dont use so high contrast colours, i recomend using gimps/photoshops great colour tools. it do actually look like ms paint swords. and make the swords more semetrical and not so unpredicted, cus youre swords..... thats not how a sword looks. and screw the juveles they look horrible, and damn that golden sword is just disqusting, makes me wanna puke! the wooden sword looks horrible, not good looking horrile but really horrible, just ****ing redo it.
Sorry, but these swords are ugly, very very ugly. They are stretched and distorted, and the overall color balance is terrible.
That is due to stretching the picture itself for the thread. They look far better in-game than in the thread. Although, showing on the thread is a huge part of getting people to download, which is why I have redo the pictures and basically the thread itself.

I already plan on redoing the golden sword. Also, the reason they look distorted is because of the screenshot. They look far less distorted in-game.[PLEASE NOTE: The pictures are very distorted.

How is he supposed to know exactly what this is before he looks at it? And why should accused of doing something wrong for looking at your thread? Btw, don't use crazy colors/contrast and don't expect everyone or even one person to be in love or like these textures.

Yeah, right; In that case post some ingame screenshots and stop being all smug.Convincing people to download is your job, never take for granted that someone will download and love your work just because you posted it.

1. I said, "If you LIKE the DEFAULT texture pack". He should have known that it only altered the DEFAULT texture pack by reading that. Reading the title of the thread, yeah you wouldn't exactly know. BUT, he said exactly "I hate BOTH" both implying he already knew at that point of writing that this altered the default. Obviously, you can't comprehend this.
2. Who said he was wrong to have an opinion or look at the thread itself? I asked WHY he looked at the thread if he didn't like default, obviously that is a clear time to just say "oh I won't like it either way because I hate the default pack". Also the lack of actual improvement advice/feedback at the beginning is what annoyed me,not that he looked at the thread.
Honestly, it isn't hard to figure out. So your facepalm was basically a facepalm to yourself.
Also, I already know from the feedback of what I need to improve on the texture pack itself and the thread itself.
1. Include more things changed.
2. Get better pictures so they don't look unappealing and distorted.
3. Change the looks of the golden sword.
Thats not to say, I hate his criticism, because he has good points to it. Which is why I'm working to improve it right now.
