Hello! Have you ever wanted to make your own texture pack, but didn't know how? Well, you will now!

What you'll need

---

You'll only need two things. Minecraft and a free art program such as Paint.net or Gimp. You can also use any other program with the ability to customize pallete size.

---

File time!

---

Time to set up the pack! The first thing you need to do is go to .minecraft. You can get there by typing in '%appdata%' in your search bar and click on .minecraft. Find the resource packs folder and go into it. Now we get into things. Create a new folder, naming it whatever you want. Open up a text editor and enter the following:

{
"pack":{
"pack_format":1,
"description":"My Resource Pack"
}
}

Save the file as 'pack.mcmeta' and put it into your new folder. Now make a new .png file. It can be blank if you want. It'll need to be 120*120 (I think) and you'll need to name it 'pack.png'. You'll need to put one more file inside. make a new folder Inside your folder. Name it 'assets'. Then you need to put a folder in THAT folder and name it 'minecraft'. Then put in [i]ANOTHER [/i]folder and name it 'textures'. Then make [i][b]ANOTHER[/b] [/i]folder and name it 'blocks'. THEN guess what? Youu're done!

[size=10pt]Open up your paint.net or Gimp or sai or.... whatever, and give it a length and width of 16p If you wanted, you could do 32*32, 64*64,128*128 and so on. Now you wanna draw the block however you want. Then save it whatever you made the texture as. For example, if you drew a brick, name it 'brick.png'. Or the grass side overlay would be 'grass_side_overlay' and so on. Put it inside your 'blocks' folder. When you're done, start up Minecraft. If you made the mcmeta right, it should pop up in your texture packs. Put it in your active packs and you're done!

[size=10pt]You can make more folders in you're 'textures' folder, and name them things like 'colormap','effects', etc. But that's all beyond me. You can put items into your pack by inputting a folder into the 'textures' folder and call it 'items'. You can put in names like 'diamond_axe','gold_sword','wood_axe',etc.
