    Quote from Zakristone

    The harshness only comes after the OP replies with idiocy. I don't lash out with all my fury if the OP makes a good thread. I do tend to get more angry if the OP is typing in an eye bleeding formatting and completely disregarding the rules though.

    Still, though!
    Weather through it and smile all the way!
    I'd understand if you replied nicely and gave them advice, and THEN they reply acting scornful and rude.
    That's when you can retaliate negatively, I s'pose.
    Still, though, try to be nice and supportive!

    Hiya!

    We've all seen the inevitable simple pack submission in Texture Packs, and we all know that it needn't be done..again and again and again.
    Of course, it gets frustrating seeing people post simple packs over and over, trust me, I know!
    Believe it or not, I do actually get angry!

    However, that doesn't mean you should treat the OP like garbage.
    You don't have to call them an idiot.
    You don't have to say "bleh, this is utter s#!t, you should feel horrible".

    You don't have to unleash all your inner rage upon this one guy.

    Instead, be nice!
    Give them tips, link to tutorials, give CONSTRUCTIVE ADVICE!
    Don't just be like "your gay nerd lmao go hang urself :o)", because that helps with nothing!


    In my days, I've seen tons of simple packs. I know the anger that stems from them!
    Lately, and even prior to my evaporation, I've seen some pretty harsh posts on such threads!
    But just be nice!
    Tape on that forced smile and deliver some quality advice!

    Most of the time, simple packs give me massive headaches, but this is so darn cute!
    Good work! I can't even think of any advice to give or issues to point out!

    If that's a rule then that's a stupid rule. The meme was implimented as a response to a post, so I see no reason why it should be removed.

    I remember something like that being a rule back in the day. Ah, well.

    I wish I knew what was going on. People are all excited to see these people coming back, like that Mirror person, and some others. I'm confused...

    You darn young'uns and your disregard for returning heroes! I killed fiddy men!
    I jest.
    Nice to see so many new people, though!

    I can't really say anything that hasn't already been said, other than that you really need to look at tutorials!
    Your colors are very, very, very, VERY flat and need definite detail improvement!
    I don't really like the fact that you copied the same texture to all sides of the workbench..
    The red colors of those...things... are too vibrant to match with the rest of the pack! You want to set a mood and stick with it!

    Like I said, look up some tutorials and read 'em!
    Good luck!

    and...by the way...responding in a single post just to quote a meme is....against the rules I'm pretty sure... plus it makes ya look like a dope

    Quote from TManTRex

    The point I was trying to make is, why are people discussing something they don't care for in the first place?


    If a man came by every other day and knocked over your garbage bins and tread on your garden, would you tell him to keep going, or stop?

    You're telling us to let him keep on going.

    A decent start, however the only changes I can really spot out at first glance are coal, iron, dirt and grass.

    The coal scares me somethin' fierce, I would suggest making it less of a giant..blob...thing... and more of a bits-of-coal-in-stone thingy. Unless you want a big coal vein in your block, in which case it needs definite improvement!

    The iron seems fine so far, but seems like it would tile horrendously. Definitely suggesting you work on that!

    Ah! I just noticed the logs! They look really nice, but I think they'd only look good on trees, as I don't think they'd tile very well. However, I'd have to actually see them tiling before I judge that, lol.

    As for the dirt and grass, they both look fine, great even!

    As a final note, I would advise against using the word "smooth" in the title, as we regulars of Texture Packs cringe when we see that word, due to one-color bucket-fill packs and all sorts of other stuff that's been done a million times.

    Anyways, great start! Good luck!

    Hey, hey! Whoa! No need for you guys to be so brutal!
    Unless he's a repeat offender, in which case, shame on him!

    In all seriousness, OP, this exact pack has been done so many times now I can't even count. The idea was overused even about 9 months ago when I left the forums! We really don't need more simple packs because we've been flooded with loads of them over time.

    If you DO want to become a texture artist, I suggest you come up with a better idea than "Hey! How about I make everything 1-2 colors! That's never been done before!" because creativity is key when you're working in the field of, well, creativity!

    I suggest you read some tutorials on actual texturing, practice, and come up with an idea BEFORE you start putting together the full pack!

    For starters, check out friendly neighborhood textureartist-and-moderator Steelfeather's giant texturing tutorial!

    Otherwise, just look around in Texture Discussion for tutorials!
