This is my very basic texture pack that changes the default tools to look like the tools from the Aether. This doesn't change anything except the default tools.

copyright law will allow it to be legal if he changes it. this counts as the color
Only if it's a certain percentage different from the original. The contrast, outline and hilt colour all remain the same as the original, which I highly doubt breaches the required percentage.
Anyway, I'm mostly against this because it's such a minor "pack" that there's almost no content to it. It's no so much about editing mod textures, but it does annoy me slightly that people can get so uppity when someone does something like this using a different texture pack's items, but they seem to not mind if it's a mod's items. Mod textures were drawn too. They have just as much claim as a texture pack artist over their graphics.
Regardless of whether its legal or not, as an artist I know that when you've made something, then someone takes it, recolours and redistributes it without asking me first, it tends to rub me the wrong way. It's a shame that in this day and age people are more concerned about what's legal rather than common courtesy.
He did not distribute the mod,neither any of it's parts.
But he did made a tiny edit to a small part and redistribute that, which is still a derivative work, meaning it still falls under the license jurisdiction.
Havanapple is right, though. It's more to do with common courtesy than legal matters, but sadly people seem to hold common courtesy in very low regard.

Personally I think this is more a tribute rather than a mean gesture. This was meant to show my love for the Aether and its beautiful looking textures rather than stealing there work.
They look good, but you should REALLY give more credit than saying from the Aether. List the texture artists who made the originals and such. Also, this isn't REALLY a texture pack. No offense.

Fun Fact: I didn't invenedit :tongue.gif:
This does not constitute as a texture pack.
I don't think he needs the owners permission for the shape, the tools just look awesome

have you ever tried to recolor and item...ITS HARD
not really O.o
Technically, it's minor edits to graphics from a mod, which is essentially the same as making minor edits to someone else's texture pack.
Don't make me laugh. I was a sprite artist a while ago, I can make sprite art. Recolours can be done by a blind seven year old.
