Love the new website! And I do agree, doors are the most anticipated update so far. My house is not complete if I have amazing walls and a boring door.

Why do you have 964 downloads for this month? That dropped a lot
That's just my direct download count off my mirror, my downloads on curse average around 1,000/day.
The only reason the other months have such high counts on direct downloads compared to September is for a while Curse wasn't updated to handle new 1.6 packs, so for most of July and part of August my mirror became the direct download.
As for the other months, there's various reasons, mostly websites linking to my direct download directly, with no links to my website, thread to anything. Just straight to the zip on my server! So I changed my .htaccess file on my server to detect incoming connections to my server that are trying to fetch my .zip directly that aren't coming from MCForums or from my internal to my website as a referral get redirected to my download page, once there most of those people usually select my primary download location. (Curse)
In a nutshell, I reshaped my traffic to make sure as many people as possible are actually making it to my thread/site and getting required information (Like telling them to install MCPatcher), and only people who actually do need the mirror use it.
My mirror hardly ever gets any traffic now, it's really only there in an emergency if Curse is down or if someone just wants a direct download and doesnt want to wait on curse's countdown timer. I think it averages maybe 25-30~ downloads a day.
That would be great, but they're all like-designed doors, just varied slightly. I made them with the intention to be "same but different" just to give them a more natural look. They all have unique grain/shading patterns, but in the end, look almost exactly the same. :/
WELL that's definitely a problem!, I have no suggestions then.
It was a nice thought though!
It's not too big of a deal, just wasted time repeating the pattern I designed. Really designing the other 8 versions of my textures isn't the time consuming part, it's the constant tweaking to get the first one "just right". Usually (unless there's a ton of detail) replicating 8 like-versions only takes a an hour or 2.
I was just going to ask that "" Ray, Can i use you're pack For my Server?"" And Then I just Opened SixtyGig,zip And I saw "TERMS_OF_USE"" or something like that.... So I just wanted To ask that can we put the Server OFFICIAL DOWNLOAD LOCATION in server.properties file? Because it will be a Direct Download with That. Or we put in the Chat That "Download our TexturePack SixtyGig By rayvolution And Put That Link?

I setup my .htaccess file in such a way you can't directly link to the file unless it's being referred from MinecraftForums or my own website, so it won't work if you put it in your server.properties. I had to do this because a lot of websites were direct linking to my file but not explaining install requirements.
I have no problem at all with you making it the official pack, if you want to put the direct link in chat that's perfectly fine. Just keep in mind *all* direct links straight to the zip will just redirect to this page: http://resourcepack.sixtygig.com/download.html
So you might as well just link to that page in your chat message.
I would like it if the Mojang screen was the Mojang screen and not a MCpatcher thing. I thibk people would know when they read the website/post to use Mcpatcher.

You'd be surprised, if you lookup youtube videos for SixtyGig, less than half of the users you find actually do not install MCPatcher, and most think Optifine is a suitable substitute when it's not.
I plan on eventually "breaking" the pack for people who don't use MCPatcher, forcing people to install it if they want to use the pack. Then, have an alternative "Light" version for people can download who can't use MCPatcher.
Reason being there's a lot of people out there who don't seem to understand that some packs still need MCPatcher, just because the pack loads without it doesn't mean it's working correctly. So there's probably hundreds (thousands?) of people using my pack in blissful ignorance without MCPatcher, who *could* install it and get a much better experience, they just don't know better. :/
But, I was not going to do that until I created the "Light" version, because there are people out there who absolutely can-not use MCPatcher, and it's not fair to exclude them from using my pack!
But, once the light version is created, I'll be going back to a better Mojang Splash page!
Glad to see that your texture pack is getting a lot of respect from the minecraft community, I even saw a youtube video with 6,000 views with your texture pack in the top 5! I love your texture pack btw great work!

P.S. here is the link to the video with your texture pack in it!

Too bad that guy, like many others, didn't install MCPatcher.
Coming soon.
..Just the early draft.

Sooo.. basically, to sum it up (because that all sounded very confusing)
People who were linking here directly:
http://sixtygig.com/texturepack/SixtyGig_Alpha_64x_MC16.zip
Are now sent here instead:
http://resourcepack.sixtygig.com/download.html
No random-CTM sadly, even though I spent the time actually making 9 variations of the doors, MCPatcher does NOT support CTM on doors. Doh!
