Fixing common problems
2. The ModLoader has to be first in the mods list, use the button Up to move it to first position. ModLoader is not needed if Forge 4.0 or newer is installed.
3. Then come (if you need them) ModLoaderMP and Forge.
4. Then come the rest of the mods and last comes OptiFine. Only one OptiFine edition may be active as they overwrite each other.
5. Do not forget to start with a clean minecraft.jar. If it is already modified or patched, then some mods may not work correctly.
6. A mod should appear either in the internal or the external mod list, but not in both at the same time.
7. Mods which have status "No mods found" needs to be repackaged to be used. The mod ZIP file usually have a folder "put_in_minecraft_jar" or similar which contains one or more files like "acx.class". The contents of this folder have to be zipped in a separate ZIP file and added as an internal mod. This solution works with almost all problematic mods.
8. If you get an error "No accelerated mode found" or "Bad OpenGL drivers" you may try running Minecraft with less memory. Go to "Setup -> Advanced", enter 256 in the field Memory and test again. This helps with some integrated graphics cards.

I am SO sorry about the delay in getting your skins completed. My computer died and I've lost all my data on my hard-drive, including the skins I was working on. (Gah!!!) Unfortunately that means I now have to start again on the skins I was working on. It happened unexpectedly and ugh. Sorry for rambling, everything is a mess at the moment. I will get the skins completed, but it might take some time. I am so sorry. Thank you so much for your patience.
Due to the huge amount of skin requests I now have, I'm temporarily closing the skin shop. All the current requests will be finished before the shop opens again. Thank you so much for your support and patience.___________________________________
Hi there! Welcome to my skin shop. If you haven't already realised, this is a girl skin shop, so no boy skins sorry.
Please read the rules before you post a request. Constructive criticism is always welcome.
Your skin will be messaged to you once it's complete. :3

MCPatcher is a "patch" basically for high-definition texture packs (HD). The default texture pack is 16x, and there are many texture packs that have higher resolutions such as 32x, 64x, 128x, etc. Since the default is 16x, higher resolution texture packs don't work properly and glitches happen. (i.e portal blocks messing up, fire glitching) MCPatcher fixes those glitches so that HD texture packs work properly. However, the higher resolution texture pack you use, the lower your FPS is going to get.
I'm pretty sure it works with Forge and Modloader, but I'm not sure about the other ones. However it does not work with Optifine. Optifine is basically the same thing as MCPatcher, but with added options to increase game performance and FPS. Optifine is missing a few features of MCPatcher however. (I'm not sure what they are.)
I personally have never used MCPatcher to install mods, I install them manually. It's up to you, but I don't know whether it works with all mods. Just remember to never install Optifine and MCPatcher together, because they are not compatible and will give you a black screen. Also if you've decided to use Optifine instead of MCPatcher, install all your mods then install Optifine last. Otherwise it probably won't work.

Edit: I am officially in love with this texture pack. (I'm in multiplayer. Not using MCPatcher or Optifine sorry. :c)

Sure I can, but could you give me more details? Do you have a reference picture?
Sorry it took me ages to finish. It was a really hard skin. xD I made two versions, because the 1st one is the one you requested, but IMO, the 2nd one looks so much better. Just tell me if you want them changed, okay? :3

Glacier was an extremely popular seed for <1.7.3 Beta. There are plenty of YouTube videos on Glacier.
ChaosGuardian is right. Sure, this is a nice seed, but tell me, HOW many seeds like this have you seen for the current terrain generation? This is the second one I've ever seen that's even remotely decent. I'm just so disappointed.
