Basically, I'm trying to retain the "spirit" of the original Minecraft theme while improving upon it in select ways, as opposed to many texture packs that try replacing it with a whole new style.

For example, glowstone is now actually a light-colored stone. Cobblestone and brick are less contrasty. Signs have a lighter background to make text more legible. Glass is clear instead of scratchy. And so on. Here are some screenshots:






Download link: AppleNovaBradTextures.zip

When you download that file, do not unzip it. If your browser opened and unzipped it for you, turn that off ("Open 'safe' files" is a security risk anyway) and try again. Put the zip file in /Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/minecraft/texturepacks/ and restart Minecraft. On the main menu, choose "Mods and Texture Packs" and select it. Done!

I may continue tweaking some of the textures, and I'll probably just quietly update this post when I do. Thoughts good, bad, or indifferent?
Would you please add this info to the first post? Thanks.
