I installed a shader and a new texture pack... fairly impressive, imo.

That looks surprisingly good. Not sure I like the UI change, but everything else looks wicked good.
Where can these thingamajigs be found?

It's actually three changes. The first is the use of Optifine, which drastically improves performance (as well as adds a lot of neat additions). The shaders mod adds the shade from the everything and gives it a more 'realistic feel'. The last is a 256 pixel texture pack which makes the things look 'real'. The texture pack also makes the super ugly toolbar.

Here's a link that shows how to install it.

I will say you will need a pretty powerful computer to handle this. I've removed my overclocking, but a 3.3ghz i5-2500k cpu and a 7850 video card with 8gb of RAM was running this at 40 fps. Surprisingly, this is a much lower rate than Skyrim with over 8gb of downloaded texture enhancements. (not that '8gb' means anything, just that there are a shit ton of improvements).

Also, my minecraft server is still up and running if anybody wants to join in!
