Hi

I am not very strong on photoshop but I try to contribute to your awesome resource pack.

Friendly ... A French player

Thanks for contributing. I'll give you some tips. The wood grain should generally be oriented the same way as the plank or stick they're attached to, so the vertical sticks on the ladders should have vertical wood grain. But I actually think the best results would be gained from just recoloring the existing bookshelf and ladder textures instead of using the plank textures. Try changing the hue and saturation and use levels or curves to adjust brightness/contrast, and if it still doesn't look quite right, you can try coloring/editing it manually until it looks like the planks it's based on.

The Mystcraft desk's resolution is a lot higher than the rest of the pack, making it look a bit weird in-game. Also these shadows: 2017-12-03_11 44 07 The default textures have this issue as well, but since the shadows are so much darker here, it's a lot more noticeable.

I know this is a lot of criticism, but I hope you don't get discouraged and keep striving for them good, good textures :)

First of all, thank you for taking the time to answer me.

I accept your criticism and I will try to do better in the future ... I also found at stake that these shadows were not the most correct, and I will try to change that quickly.

Thanking you again. And see you soon
