Okay, I downloaded what I needed. I downloaded the texture pack I wanted.When I downloaded it, this is what it went under: C:\Users\Fawaz\Downloads\1312174185.2772.zip When I try going into Minecraft and opening texture pack, and clicking it, all it does is expand. It expands into tons of stuff and codes. Please help! Go into detail please I'm a total noob at this.
Do you have winrar installed once you do just dl it and put it in the texture packs folder that is in the minecraft folder! Hope this helped!
Thank you! But I still need help. When I open Minecraft, and go to texture packs, it's there. The same bunch of numbers with .zip at the end. But it won't let me access it. When I click it, nothing happens. And yes I've double clicked.
You asked for detail, so don't take offense if i include excessively basic instructions. =)
Open minecraft. Go to the texture packs menu. Open texture pack folder. Move the zip file you downloaded to that folder. Close the folder. Left click the texture pack once in the texture packs menu to select it. Click "Done." If your texture pack includes modifications to the background/logo etc. on the main menu screen you should see the differences immediately after clicking done. If it doesn't include changes on the main menu just log in and they should show up. These instructions only apply to your basic 16x16 resolution texture packs though, like painterly, which i suspect is what you're trying to use. I'm not sure what you mean about exploding into codes. Hope this helps.
After muuurghs' help it's now in C:\Users\Fawaz(My Name)\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\texturepacks. But my problem now it that in the texture pack folder it's just grey, and when I click on it nothing happens. And I don't think it's HD.

If the texture pack icon is greyed out, my next suggestion would be to extract the zip file and make sure that all the various texture files and folders are not nested within a single parent folder inside the zip file. You may have to use a zip program to repack the file if that is the case.

I have a feeling this is all gonna be because I made a small stupid mistake haha.
This is what I see: http://ctrlv.in/31316
The texture pack is there, but it seemingly does absolutely nothing.

Sorry, as I said I'm a total noob. How EXACTLY would I extract it? I know, I know, I'm barely smart enough to own a computer.

Yea, if clicking done with that selected does nothing, there is probably something wrong with the way the zip file is packed, or the way the images are formatted, though i could be wrong. Extract the zip file somewhere you can find it, then go into that folder so that you see a list of files and filders named things like pack.png, pack.txt, terrain.png, mob, armor, art, gui, etc. Then select all those files, add them to a new zip archive, and try putting that in your texture pack folder. If you need a program to extract and pack zip files, i prefer 7zip myself.

After installing 7zip, there will be a set of options for extracting and packing zip files in the context menu (the menu that pops up when you right click). Windows generally has stuff installed to do basic zip extracting by default, but you will have an easier time repacking the zip file with 7zip, i think. So following the instructions from my previous post, after selecting all those files and folders, you would right click on one and what you tell 7zip to do will apply to all of the selected files, you'll want the "Add to (sequence of numbers or whatever).zip" option.

Is there some sort of chatroom option on here? I'm hopeless.
Okay I'll walk you through what I'm doing and what's happening.
1.I click create my painterly pack or whatever from the texture pack site.
2.It opens the expanded version of it in WinRAR
3. It's in C:\Users\Fawaz\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\texturepacks and it's also there when I click texture packs on Minecraft, but it's just grey.
Now what do I do?

Also when I right click it and click it, I get three options. Extract here. Extract to (buncha numbers). Extract files...
When I clicked extract files I got an error message "No archives found"

I'm having trouble duplicating that so i'm at a bit of a loss.
I'm a bit confused about it opening the expanded version of it in winrar.

In your texture packs folder right click the file and try 'extract here'. If a zip file comes out, use that. If one folder comes out, go inside that, click ctrl+a, and right click 'send to - compressed zip folder'. If a lot of files and folders come out, there's something else wrong.

Were is the .zip file for the texture pack?
Also, is it an HD pack?
