Hopefully this blog will help you fellow minecraftians out there in the process of installing and using those "sometimes hard to install" texture packs
HD Texture Patcher
Any texture pack with a higher resolution than 16X16 requires a 'HD Texture Patcher' to run it, the 'HD Texture Patcher' also enables allows the change of custom water and lava for 16X16 texture packs. To use the 'HD Texture Patcher' follow these easy instructions:
1. Download the correct version of the patcher for your OS.
Windows
All other platforms
2. Double-click the patcher. You should see this:
3. If you would like Better Grass (full grass texture on the sides of grass blocks next to other grass blocks), check the box next to Better Grass.
4. Click Patch. You do not need to select a texture pack at this point.
5. Start the game.
6. Click Mods and Texture Packs.
7. Click Open Texture Packs folder. If nothing happens, just go to the texturepacks folder in .minecraft instead.
8. Copy all your texture packs into that folder.
9. Enjoy switching between texture packs without repatching the game!
