So just recently I have decided to make a texture pack of my own. I have tried this before and quit very early in doing so because I didn't exactly know what I wanted and it was looking horrible. This new one, I am happy to say, looks like it is going to turn out much better. Although I have only done few blocks and have a long way to go, I just thought I would share this with the members of this forum. I have only two picture right now of the grass and stone. I think I may change the top of grass because it makes me kinda dizzy. Other than that, they look decent in my opinion. I know its hard to ask for feedback on something that has a picture of two blocks but I will post more as I get more (assuming anyone cares.)
Grass:
And the stone. (does the big "rock" in the stone bother anyone else?)
i see what you mean with the grass making you kind of dizzy perhaps if the darker colors were a little more broken up that might help a bit
Could turn into a nice bright TP. I can't stress enough the importance of "blend" however. Alot of people focus all their attention on saturation and color when they should be worrying about tiling. I would love the stone if there wasn't that big bright circle shape on every individual block. Might look good in small masses, but accumulate alot of blocks together and those prominant shapes are an eye sore.

Yeah, when I went on to test it I seen how badly that stuck out and hated that. I'm fixing that, don't worry. I completely agree with you.
@CTRLotus Yeah, it was intentional. Although I do lol a bit everything I read it :3
Could you maybe change the texture for the stone? hmm, make it sort of like the default, but more smooth?
And the Wooden Planks is a neat idea!
I like the look of the stone. Minus the big bright spot in the lower left hand corner. But I've fixed that now. I think I'm going to keep the stone like this. My own personal touch :wink.gif: I don't want to hit TOO close to default with anything. :tongue.gif:
Also, about the planks, thanks! I thought so too. :wink.gif:
Looks like you can get a great 'cartoon' pack going, mainly because of that grass.
I feel that the planks and cobble are too blurry as it's only 16px (which I love using) you've only got so many pixels to spare and you can't get a clear contrast between the 'bricks' and the 'grout' (the area between the bricks). it just makes it look blurry whether from afar or up close.

Yeah... I was worried about that too :3 Nobody was saying anything so I assumed it wasn't too bad... thanks for confirming this :tongue.gif: Now I know for sure I need to get on it if it bothers someone other than my (possibly OCD) self.
@MrTrofl Does that mean it isn't? And I know. The name. lol
Thank you :smile.gif:

Yep. I'm actually working on fixing it right now.
