Welcome to Easycraft, a Yukkuricraft-themed Remix of LithiumSound's Greatwood Texturepack, intended purely for use on the server. Greatwood's creative license allows for anybody to edit this texture pack, provided they link it back to the original owner, so I'm guessing I'm in the clear unless I've derped up somewhere. The texture pack will reference the shenanigans that happen in the Mumble. The pack will be avaliable for download once I sink a few more hours into it.

Why a Remix?
This is actually my first attempt at pixel art, so I'm trying to start off nice and slow. Greatwood provides a nice, mellow and soft base that remains faithful to the original vanilla texturepack, and I'll mostly be editing the items anyway. The aim is to eventually modify Greatwood/Easycraft into a completely independent pack over the course of a few months (I do have a life.)

Why make another Touhou-themed Texture Pack when we already have Touhoucraft?
Well, in my opinion, Touhoucraft is a little too rich in colour and sometimes too much detail is crammed into one block. I've always been a sucker for muted, soft colour palettes and Easycraft is both simplistic, easy to understand, and most importantly doesn't oversaturate one's eyes with colour. Additionally, some items in Touhoucraft are often confusing to first-timers, as they only bear a passing resemblance to the item they are there to represent- this is particularly prevalent with sword weaponry. Easycraft aims not to turn every single item into a Touhou reference, but will do so for items that can still be easily identified. (e.g. Sword of Hisou for Golden Sword)

Not to be a jerk or anything, but this "Golden Voice Kilel" and McNuggies thing is really getting old and bothersome.

Looks... alright, so far. I'd like to see more paintings.

Noted. I might scrap the McNuggie thing, but I'm not sure what to do about the jukebox, so unless anybody has an idea, it's staying the same for now.

As for the paintings, I am planning on turning all paintings into Touhou-themed ones.
