Thanks Tesa, that helps me to understand the difference between the two authors and what I personnaly see in game. Sometimes I see things differently than the authors.

Ah, mate, I only recently found some info on what happened to you. Luckily it can't be all that bad - you get to play Skyrim after all Well, get well soon, and come back here. From the start of this project I had you and your opinion in mind, so here's a dedication on the front page.

Thank you Tesa+ for this awesome comparison. This is an effort I can never get myself to make - to show the difference (mostly because I lose original textures in the process). It also shows that some original textures looked really nice from the distance - it was only up close that they showed their weaknesses.

Generally I tried to stay as close to Al's vision as possible, keeping the original colour scheme and type of ground, but I used higher resolution textures, and strived for realistic proportions (no 4ft. long blades of grass, hopefully).

i am ok just had a bit of a prolonged scare.. but recovering, it depressed me as i have had this for a while and coped, but this came out of the blue and flattened me. I just have to take it easy for a while.
Thanks for the dedication, touched!

I carefully watched my steps and I was just amazed by your great texrures Mac, same in your two other textures mods which three can be seen in the great Ubanga.
As I said to Al, it's the greatest experience of wonders I ever saw in all the Elder Scrolls. I strongly applaude your work.
I let images in your gallery. Jewels like these are a MUST in game!!!

Looks good, don't you think so, too. ^_^

Maczopikczo, I have seen the right side of your logo for the fist time (was too wide for my browser window). I had a good laugh. Obviously someone had a good time designing it. ^_^
