This pack is a nice change of pace, I'm glad you decided to post it :-D
Lol! I liked your original post better! :biggrin.gif:
Ha ha! It's good to be polite, I agree!
This pack has got to be completed and I too am really glad minergirl uploaded such a great pic. The greatness of Minecraft is that it is all things to all men (and women), but I'm still a guy, and that's ok too!

[sarcasm] Don't you question my sexuality! [/sarcasm]
No! Your not allowed, get back to more gritty textures, you, you 'man' you! Be off with you!
Seriously though, my youngest girl would love to play Minecraft using this, and even one of her older brothers brightened up when he saw the pic at the top!
That is sooo cool looking. Even though I am not much of a PINK girl. I love what I see in your texture pack so far. I can't wait to try it out. As for Creepers, Somedays I would to Bobbitize a few of them, especially when you are in multiplayer and it is set to peaceful. I wish they would fix that :sad.gif: They never go away.!
Looking forward to seeing your pack finished. :biggrin.gif:
ps. I suppose it's too late to say you might like my texture pack. It's one of the 'grittier' one's on offer! :biggrin.gif:
pps. And my sincere apologies to you, minegirl, for the inconvenience of having to trawl past this silly post!
I like your texture pack's design, but i don't like steam punk very much....
I should apologize, As I let my personal life, seep into my posting....
I had just had a conversation with a girl how it was unfair that women did not get payed for full maternity leave. She said in the efforts of "equal opportunities" Women should be payed more then men and get payed full time pay during maternity leave. This was just annoying to me and I explained that pregnancy was a choice, and women shouldn't get payed more, for just being a women..... She said it was fair because women had been oppressed for so long so it was men's turn.
So yea sorry about that.
You did also wrongly assume, that I am mean to my female friends. I try to be respectful and as kind to them as possible. I defiantly will not hit my wife when I'm married. I get insanely angry over someone hitting a dog, so hitting your wife is 20 times worse.
I do still stand to my reason that minecraft is more male oriented.
But anyways..... off topic over, sry about that.

That is a really beautiful and cheerful pack, minegirl, and if you don't mind me saying, about flippin' time too! I know that a number of male neanderthals think Minecraft, and all things pertaining to construction, was invented exclusively for them, but when they've finished scratching themselves and switched on a few brain cells, they may realize the world has moved on a few centuries, but I doubt it! [Lol! bring it on!! ]
Seriously though, your tiling and choice of colours, etc. looks superb and I'm sure this will please many!
Looking forward to seeing what you've done with the mobs, etc!
wow really?
The fact is graphics wise minecraft is very guy oriented. Studies show that Most girls (not saying all) prefer games with good looking graphics ie. final fantasy. Minecraft is not this. It's mostly pixelated and not very good looking. So that means it is more geared towards men. that's just how it is.
Your post proved that some women (you) can be just as brain cell deficient and cavemanish as men.
So stop being sexist. ( I just had to get this of my chest, I hate it when girls think they can call men stupid, but expect to be treated all nice)
On topic-
I like the pack! I probably won't use it because I like minecraft to be more gritty, but the artwork is great!
Hey, Guess what? You are wrong and this is sexist as hell. Nice work!

Hahaha, oh man I missed this post. Poor you, it must suck living as a white male. Curse those wretched women for trying to reach income at the same level as that of their male counterparts, and how dare they try to be seen as equals in society.
Go read some basic feminist theory, also next time try not to compare a wife to a dog when trying to show how open-minded you are.

Oh really? so wanting to be payed more then men at all times and get 4-5 months of pay without doing any work because your a woman is fair? Give me a break.
anyways if you want to continue this discussion, pm me. It shouldn't go here.

the australian govt gives you something like 1 year full paid maternity leave, maybe its not "fair" but the way the world is going, it takes two income these days to pay off a house... women are starting to not have babies simply because its impossible to afford under normal circumstances... the govt didnt like that idea very much. a few years ago we were dangerously underpopulated. They now pay us several thousand just to HAVE a baby, they also want to make sure we are not rushed back to work.

No this is the perfect place, you posted your misogynistic ******** in public you get called out on it in public. It is not about earning more money than men, it never has been. Woman in the United States (assuming that's where you're from) earn far, far less pay than men. On top of this, you're vastly overestimating the benefits of maternity leave. Maternity leave usually lasts about 10-14 weeks in most western nations, and is often unpaid. I'd just like to mention that your idea that all woman choose to become pregnant is just plain wrong. What you're saying that while they're burdened with pregnancy they don't deserve to retain their job or receive a liveable income. You're saying that, because of their basic biological functions, they deserve a lesser standard of living.
Maternity leave laws are there to protect woman who would otherwise be kicked to the street the moment the pregnancy test comes back positive. You are not persecuted as a male. Get this ******** out of your head right now.
edit:
I'm guessing you believe in welfare queens as well.
Ah, see this is not the place to discuss this because it's about a minecraft texture pack. I answered a comment made in jest in a unfair way. I explained why and wanted to get back to the topic at hand.
but you want to drag it out here....
Notice, that this was a hypothetical situation this girl was suggesting. She said, that to be fair for the years women were oppressed, they should be payed 1 more dollar per hour, just because they were a woman. she also said that, to also make up for the difficulty of pregnancy, women should have from the 4 month of pregnancy to a month after the baby is born, of fully paid, leave time.
This is the discussion I had when I made that post and I was taking things too seriously.
So I'll apologize again, I took things too seriously, but I tried to get the topic back on track. I know I'm furthering it with this post, but I can't have someone directly assault my person, and just let it go. So I will be willing to debate this with you in Pm's, but I'm done with the discussion here.
You can write all the inflammatory things you want here but I will not respond to this thread.
Anyways good pack, like the look, keep doing what your doing.

I like this pack. It looks like a barbie playset. I can't wait to see what the mobs look like.
How about renaming the pack dollcraft since it looks like a doll kind of world. =P
Minergirl, I was trying to think what the lovely style of your pack reminded me of. I don't know if you have 'Peppa Pig' in your part of the world, but here is the link: http://www.nickjr.co.uk/shows/peppa/
I'm sure you've plenty of shapes and styles already being mulled over, but you might get some useful ideas. :smile.gif:
Please, please don't change the name, it helps to redress the balance slightly and there are so many youngsters and folks of any persuasion who would love a happy world like this to build in. Heck after I've been in my Steampunk world for a few hours, I think yours would be a required health prescription for making me smile again! :biggrin.gif:
I know we can play on peaceful, but it would be cool if somehow the otherwise nasty mobs could be changed to do something hilarious when you come across them or at least have toned down attack strengths, rather than the usually aggressive stance. I'm well aware that this would be changing what makes Minecraft 'survival', but for little ones there's the possibility of a wonderful 'safe' sandbox play area, along with interesting creatures, rather than the slightly sterile world of peaceful.
Also, being all things to all people, this would further strengthen Minecraft's appeal (not that it needs any help). There's a huge market out there for kids software and a lot of it is very trashy. I can't think of anything more imaginative and stimulating for kids than a safer Minecraft with the sort of texture pack you're working on.
Mmm, nice new pics and getting better!
[edit] If you really felt you needed to change the name, how about 'kidcraft' or 'happycraft'. I'd hate to see boys being put off, even though it sounds like I'm contradicting myself. :smile.gif:
Oh god, what kind of rambling thread-derailment did I start here? xD
No, it was me, Seiseki, and I am really sorry for spoiling the start of this thread with such a challenging comment...this was obviously not the place for it. My sincere apologies, minergirl. If you would like me to remove it, I would be happy to do so, to avoid further derailment. :smile.gif:
However, my appreciation of the idea and the artwork behind this texture endeavour remains the same...an excellent one indeed.
I'm a man, but I have to say, this is really good stuff :smile.gif: I'd use it, I'm looking forward for your pack. Good luck on replacing the few tiles that are missing, I'm sure a lot of people on here will appreciate your work.
Ha ha! It's good to be polite, I agree!
