Archived Massivecraft Texture Pack Paintings

[DrFong]

The MassiveCraft texture pack is one of my favorites. It gives a great custom look and feel to MassiveCraft and I would recommend everyone give it a try.

There is one area where I think it could be improved. I think some of the images that are displayed by the paintings could use a refresh. Don't get me wrong! The texture pack has many wonderful paintings available. I just think a few of them could be replaced by more useful images that would help immersion.

If anyone agrees with me and we could get the support of whoever works on the texture pack perhaps we could start a project to revitalize a few of them and make them more customized for the server.

My questions would be:

which of the paintings do you regularly hang?

Which do you think are the best?

Which could you do without?

What could they be replaced with?

Here for reference is a list of all the paintings in the MassiveCraft texture pack:
(I made up names to describe each one. If anyone has the images saved that would be much better.)

1x1 Vent
1x1 Lighthouse Painting
1x1 Creeper Poster
1x1 Minepick Poster
1x1 Sword & Shield
1x1 Another Vent
1x1 Knives

The poll only lets me add so many options so I am just polling the 1x1 paintings. If this idea catches on we can poll the rest at a later time.

2x1 Skull Painting
2x1 Notices
2x1 Notice Board
2x1 Jungle Painting
2x1 Fence Painting
1x2 Yellow Banner
1x2 Blue Banner
2x2 Wizard Painting
2x2 Cube Poster
2x2 Dark Castle Painting
2x2 Dark Forest Painting
2x2 Light Castle Painting
2x2 Mountain Scene Painting
2x4 Waterfall Painting
4x4 Nether Painting
4x4 Minecraftian Man Poster
4x4 Nature Painting
4x4 Map
4x4 City Painting

I dint use any 4x4 or 2x2 ATM but I use the notice boards and new clippings and stuff for my research place to give it a better feel the knives also help for kitchen, and the flags and banners. But I think the flags should have something that resembles regalia more if it doesn't already.

Although I don't really use paintings, I think this thread is very well constructed.

 

[Duskembyr]

The waterfall painting is beautiful, just saying.
