Do you want another Texture Pack?

Would you like or would use another texture pack? If so, let me know and I'll put one or three together. It seems I've gotten little feedback regarding them.

Sturgeon's Law

I've been realizing more and more that a good number of seamless textures are really poorly constructed, or lack 'real world' uses (retina burning colors, and shapes).

This observations is summed up with Sturgeon's Law which states:

“Ninety percent of everything is crud”

This seems so true, however is pretty pesimistic. Optimistically, it just means that to find the gems, one must sift through a whole lot of mud.

Sturgeon's Law is kind of parallel to Pareto Principle, or most of us know it as the 80/20 Rule. This rule is an optimistic, real world look at almost every system. From business sales, to group participation, it holds true.

So.... back to my point.... Most of the seamless textures are not well done, However those textures that are well done, shine above the others. Hopefully, you will find the textures on this site to be nicely done, and fall well within the 20% of loving-goodness.

What do you think of the laws/rules? What do you think of the textures on this and other websites?

Cheers,
Patrick

Enter a phrase intro Translation Party and it will translate it into Japanese and back into English as many times as it takes to reach steady state. The results are quite funny.

Goldfrapp - Happiness

Quite an amazing piece of music with ethereal vocals. You have to pay close attention to the lyrics as they seem to be a poke at cults who want money in return for happiness. Very interesting, and very enjoyable.... though the video is really .... well.... strange.
