that is ugly...but there's only so many ways you can take a 16x texture package and modify it. They all look the same to me: ugly. You can't take simple and make simple look better, it's just impossible until you go above restrictions.
One of the glaring flaws of this pack is that it does not look good when tiled. There are many ways to do this. I understand from the picture that you want it to be apparent that the world is made of blocks with a plastic sheen over each individual one. One thing I really suggest is that you add the edge shine and shadow with a translucent dark grey and a translucent light grey or almost white and just put that shine on each and every block instead of taking the "16-bit color saver method" of making the shine and shadow on the edges. Also, it seems that you have not deviated at all from the default palette. If you're using the GIMP, change it to RGB mode instead of indexed mode to get access to any and all colors (thought you should probably switch it back to indexed when you're done AND DON'T USE FLOYD-STEINBERG!). This might be the reason why you used the same highlight and shadow colors for the edges as the rest of the block. Also, when making textures, you have to make sure that they look good in any orientation.
also, don't be shy about using more colors. Just make sure that they have an amount of contrast that works well to portray the presumed texture of the particular block.
Good luck on making it look good!

WOAH, WAIT. Our eyes take pictures? Please tell me I can recover these pictures from another person.
You have to stick a thumb drive up their nose, drag and drop the pictures onto it, and then load them through your ear.

Imo it looks ugly. And not shiny at all.

Also; it was made out of boredom :3 so tiling isn't going to look that great.
