Sweet

Downloading, time to nostalgia

EDIT:
should change the wild grass color as it looks a bit awkward

[Tr0n]

Those were the days, I'll try it out in a bit.

Great pack searched for a pack like this for ages.

[FrigginSandvich]

I don't see why you'd want this, imo the pre-halloween MC looks so much worse.

I can see that you didnt play back in the good ol' days.

Yes I did, I still think this looks much worse than the new MC graphics.

Yeah, it does look worse, i agree with you.
But still. I remember the day when i bought Minecraft, and all the graphics. It was amazing!
The all-sickly-greenish grass and leaves makes you remember it!
It was so awesome!

[kels430]

I like it because some of the new grass is way too dark.

[Chasnay]

This is awesome! I've been waiting for this  

[Blagob]

I find it funny that you highlight Beta features in the pre-Halloween nostalgia pack.

Fun times.

[prodocol]

I just like this better because my computer can't run with fancy graphics, and the side grass conflicting with the top grass looks horrible.

This.

The new grass looks much more pleasing to the eye.

[NAGMUS1]

I'm just showing how they look when the pack is enabled.  

[trineops]

very nice but why only grass and leaves

[ElementalChaos]

I decided to create better Wild Grass and Shrub textures, use them if you want

What? You mean i should change other textures like they were before? Like the smoothstone top of a furnace/dispenser?

Great, i updated the pack with your textures. I just changed the contrast a little bit  

[FloRavenX]

You should update it for 1.7. The pistons are purple, and the cobblestone has a new texture.
