I like this mod and use it. However, it seems that when ALL skins are downloaded from the database that there is server startup slowdown processing all the images.
This review is more about the nature of the mod, rather than the mod quality itself.
Most of us don't have many people joining our servers anyways, it seems silly to make it even more restrictive.
However, possibly someone out there may have a purpose for this mod.
Only works on very few items. Requires too much work on user side to make it work for other items.
Suggestion for improvement: If it supported more items by default. So it was more like plug-and-play.

It's a very nice looking texture pack.
I'd like to see it continue developement and add more textures that aren't yet covered.
Support for more mods would be nice too.
Thank you.
This mod is good.

By The Light!
Good mod. The only light mod I liked that didn't crash the game. It's practical and everyone on the server benefits.
Works on very few items

Pretty, but crashes the server

My favorite texture pack.

Doesn't work!
