I downloaded JSTR and went on Glows GIT and downloaded the master .zip file and just pulled out the folders of the mods that are in Attack of the B-Team.
Thanks man, I'll give it another try tonight. I can't go back to vanilla textures.

For what it's worth, I know my personal variant of the pack is somewhat cobbled together, having followed the pack proper since before modding was especially prevalent. I updated to the newest variant a few days ago when I noticed this thread was moving again, but there are some things in it I plan to revert to my older version (dirt being the most notable block). I tend to like my blocks to look very smooth rather than gritty, I've found. Is there still a location at which I can find variants on various blocks and such that people have done? Would save me some time reverting to my old version (on another computer), plus allows those variants to be more readily available to others who wish to tweak their pack a bit of their own volition. I remember the original pack way back when had a customizer page, but I'm not especially skilled in figuring out how texture packs have become resource packs and determining how to fix the differences and such. *chuckles* Hammering away at it for a while eventually works, but it's much easier when you have individual picture files for each block type like I seem to find in the current pack!I just thought I would point out for all the people who don't know, there are and always has been two different John Smith packs.
John Smith Legacy and JohnSmith Technicians Remix.
John Smith Legacy is for Vanilla Minecraft and JohnSmith Technicians Remix is for Modded Minecraft.
The trouble starts that Modded Minecraft is always a little bit behind with the Minecraft versions (1.6.4 seems to be the latest) so the base textures are always a little out of date, like the mushrooms and brown wool were sorted out a long time ago (over six months at least) in the Legacy pack.
Luckly the latest vanilla pack (John Smith Legacy) for Minecraft 1.7.5 is more or less the same pack as for Minecraft 1.6.4, so I've based my JohnSmith Technicians Remix on the latest Legacy pack, there is not a lot of modded textures in it at the moment while some testing and checking are been completed.
I hope this helps you.
As for people calling this a 1.4.7 pack, there really is no such thing anymore, it used to be simple when there were not that many mods but with the newer mod packs there are just thousands of textures to sort out, for example the FTB Monster pack has almost 22000 textures to check, edit and update, as you can imagine that is an impossible task.
My current goal is to start with the main textures for the mods that are used in virtually all the packs like Iron Chests, NEI and neiplugins etc...
Don't expect things like Tinkers Construct as that mod has over 3700 textures, a start has been made by Dweller_Benthos but it is a very big task.

This is one of the huge dangers of texturing. I am involved in a similar project, and it's very easy to become overwhelmed at the immense texture list. Regardless, I have really enjoyed your work and so have many, many other people! Best of luck as you move on, and I hope you find another creative outlet in whatever game you end up playing.I guess I should write a final post, I've just lost interest to minecraft, and with the amount of new mods coming out, glowstrontium and I just couldn't keep up. While we enjoyed what we did, it was just too much for the two of us, and it seemed like not that many people used the pack so it wasn't worth the huge amount of time it took to texture every single mod for a small amount of people.

Anyone fancy giving it a go?
Well another six hours of editing and Better Storage is almost done, I've covered most of the important ones that effect the look of the world with only 20 more to go to complete the mod.
My release updated to:- JohnSmith JSTR v0.0.4

You've done a great job, but I think that the storage discs don't feel like JohnSmith, they feel like faithful. I know that you only added in the missing ones to match what was already there. But it would be great for them to get a redesign.
Also Jim would you be interested in uploading your work to git as well as on your site? As it makes sense to have everything uploaded to the same place.
