Lol, I've obviously missed the insidious spreading of the 'tau'. I wasn't trying to insult you or your skills, because those do look awesome, I am (was) just worried about making them recognizable.
But hey, if everyone already knows about it, then bonus points to you and everyone else for good advertising. :biggrin.gif:
Pardon me. When I said established I meant that everyone* here thought the tau was pretty slick in its hidden meaning. It's up to us to make it recognized, by using it.

Also, I'm pretty sure Lilyo doesn't like it either, although I could be remembering it wrong... but hey, the more designs the merrier. Let people pick the one that fits their style the best.
PS: I hate it when I post something big only to have it be the last entry on a page. XP So here:

As always. I love our competitions :smile.gif:
Though you never did put our last one up to vote :dry.gif:
I may not have read far enough back, but I wasn't given the impression that Lilyo hated the tau, but the peg leg oddness that it looked like.

Wait, what? What are you talking about? The adventure pack contest hasn't reached it's deadline yet, and I don't remember starting any other contest...
EDIT: Oh, you mean the mossy cobble? That was just for fun. I never meant for it to go up for a vote (and if I said that, it was written without thinking).

Ahh, I see... Impressive brick textures indeed. You did not disappoint.

Well, you did say you'd put it to a vote, but you also said there was no way in hell I'd win, lol.
Since my last question appears to have gone relatively unseen - I'm sorry if this isn't the case - I'm going to ask it again, then explain my reason for asking.
Is the TAU website intended as a replacement for the forum?
My reason for asking this is that I have no intention of leaving this place to join the Union there. The original intention of this was to make the forum better for us, and now that we seem to be superseding the forums, I feel uncomfortable about the whole thing. I don't want to be a part of a forum replacement operation, even if it will be better for us, because I love this place. :sad.gif:
A few things:
-If this would just be a Union website with something like a list of Union-member works with a link to the forum thread, or a page for each member pack with a link here or a little download, that's fine to me. I just don't like the idea of migrating there to be with this community.
-If the idea in my first point [i]is[/i] the idea of a community presented, I'd think it alright, but I'm not so sure on this one.
-If my entire way of thinking is stupid, and this isn't happening at all, I'm sorry for any disturbance. I just wanted to lay this down, because I feel uncomfortable and resistant to this change, and change in general.
-If this is just my resistance to change talking, I'm again sorry.
-I expect to get some stick for this. I'm sorry if I sound accusing...
Sorry, I was on my lunch break eating! :tongue.gif:
Alright, I'm here to answer some of the questions that are concerning members of the union.
First and foremost, the website is going to be a place like this where people can come together as modders/artists and present their work.
Initially, the site is not intended as a replacement. That may end up happening, but that is not for a while down the road, when that site becomes as popular as this one. For now, it is supposed to be a forum designed for Modders and Texture artists to discuss things related to them.
So, the answer is yes and no. Yes, eventually, we [I hope we? I know a couple of use support it] hope that we can replace the beauracracy of this place. But for now, and the first few months of operation, it is not intended for that purpose.
If this was confusing in any way, please ask for clarification.
EDIT:
Concerning the logos: At this point in time, all of the logos are acceptable that utilize the greek letter tau as the main symbol. Feel free to design your own logo that utilizes the letter. Mu is the symbol for the Modders union. These are the symbols due in part to the cleverness of the symbolism, but also because they are easy to recognize.
Since everyone else seems to be doing it, here are some of my 1.8 textures for people to critique. (I assume the texture next to the new mushrooms is for vines)

It doesn't show quotes that are quoted. ^^
Well I did concede defeat, remember? No need for a poll to further grind my face into the sidewalk beneath the heel of your awesomeness.
Mmm, perhaps you did, but I thought your last version was pretty damn good.

I love those mossy bricks. They look cool and tile well.
@dr_pootis
You can have your adfly money pay into a paypal acct and then from that paypal account, you can donate to the the site's operation fund.
