So I'm sure there are some textures in the Official packs on Minecraft Forum that some of us feel should be replaced by another texture that is available. I want to know which textures everyone feels we should swap out, this way we can have an agreeable Official pack to release here.
I think that Mr Trofl/My stone brick edits should be replaced by Reubenx's set or Friky's set and one of us could make a better matching Deco stone brick texture for it.
Also as much as I like my sandstone, I think the smooth sandstone and glyph sandstone blocks need to be swapped out with sm284614's textures. Personally I think we should use CCCode's smoother transition edits of sm's textures but its possible not everyone would agree with me.
If we are keeping my plank edits in then we should change the Jungle log to my alt of Friky's log so that they match and are more consistent. Also I feel the jungle tree icon should be swapped to the one by SeanFletchr and preferably swap the jungle leaves to Reubenx's.
Finally, I think we should swap out the enchanting tables to the ones WantedRobot made or the Cloth edits of WR's by Theg.
TL:DR I feel we should swap out certain textures in the MCF official pack. Proposed changes above. Thoughts and Opinions?

I don't agree on the stone bricks. I really like Friky's set, but the color is more similar to cobble than smoothstone and the bricks are crafted with smoothstone. I also think it looks kind of shiny, just like the cobble... Stone bricks in my opinion should have a rougher texture with the smoothstone color. I'm not sure about the jungle logs. Your's is a bit bright and saturated for Light, I feel, and Friky's is too dark and desaturated... A recolor that work better with Light would be wonderful. I agree on the rest. sm's smooth and hieroglyphic sandstone and my edit works better with Doku's sandstone. Obsidian's dark, purple-ish color really look horrible next to the wood and red colors that are used in the other enchantment tables. (Also, WR just recolored the diamond, the texture was made by me based on SerAaron's end crystal) I used a colorless obsidian texture for my enchantment table for a reason  That's my thoughts and opinion. |

well it wouldn't be too difficult to do a color match to stone to switch the stone bricks and we can tone down the highlights and add a little more noise to make it less shiny and more rough.
the jungle logs we could use mine for high, friky's for dark and then make an edit for light.
the enchant tables, I went off of the customizer so people would know which ones I was referring to and they were labeled as WR's.

We could use some more input on this. The sooner we all come together and start getting this forum sorted and up to date, the sooner we can start having a full scale transition away from Minecraft Forums.

I don't know so much for the stone and wood as I'm rather biased at times and don't know who's got what textures entirely. Images might help or maybe a thread by the contributor showing what they've done? from there, together, everyone could comment on what they like for textures right?

Images would work but the issue is, we'd have to tear out each item texture individually to post them. Unless someone already has every contributed texture already separated from Terrain/item .png's that they can post as a zip for us to all download. That would be really nice to have but so extremely time consuming.

Well, as I've seen, some people have them in an Imagur or a Photobucket and don't delete them. Individual artists can have individual threads and just post their things there, it might aid in texture pack fixes as well. If someone would want me to, I wouldn't mind at all doing the dissection.It'd take a lot of time but I'd do it if enough people would like me to.

That would be awesome, It would make fixing broken customizer terrains easier for one and it would make it so if we do a fix for something by someone else we don't have to download an entire pack from the customizer for that one terrain piece.

I downloaded this from wessex a long while ago (whenever 1.8 was in the works). www.mediafire.com/?agl82plyqq8ols8I don't think it it has every single texture submitted from that time, but it has quite a lot. It also has a lot of forgotten/unsupported mod support from various contributors. Also about the stone bricks/jungle logs/enchantment tables: 1. I personaly like Friky's stone bricks the best. 2. I agree that a less bright/saturated version of Jetstorm's jungle log would fit Light pretty well. 3. As far as the enchanting tables go, I'm going to be a bit biased on the one's I made, but Theg's would make a good replacement. |

Right now, I wouldn't mind having placeholder packs for download links just so I can get some things set up for you all to see and what not. If any of those links are available, I'd love to be directed toward them.
EDIT: Unless there's some obvious sign for me? [/roll]

There's no point in discussing this until the forum is open for public use. It will just end in bickering about who likes what texture.

Am I the only who doesn't like Friky's stone brick set? They all look really odd to me, and don't seem to fit the Dokucraft style as much as some of the other bricks (like SageHarpuia's, for example). I kinda have the same feelings on sm284614's 1.2 sandstone blocks as well...the smoother one by CCCode is better, but those hieroglyphs...
Funnily enough, I also prefer SageHarpuia's 1.2 sandstone.
Also, I'm not trying to demean anyone here; the textures are still good regardless.

I think that Zomeraktii's stone bricks look the most Doku-ish. I agree with CCCode on this one, FrIky's seem a bit too shiny. I've edited the lighter version in the FyreUK pack to a soft gray, which is a bit darker than the stone, but it fits really well.
As for jungle wood, I use an edit (mostly every block in my terrain.png has been edited to my liking) of FrIky's which makes it less green and more brown. Kind of in the middle of FrIky's and JetStorm's.
If you guys want me to post these, ask and it shall be done.
