Vote for default textures
I would go for a darkened version of http://c55.me/minetest/forum/viewtopic.php?id=224.
Another method is copy pasting the best textures from a couple of similar styled packs.

We must be careful not to clone Notches mistakes.

I'm very glad this topic exists. IMO, the current default textures are really not the best, and make the MT world look rather bad for me. I took a look at the other texture packs, and I believe my vote goes to Almost MC.
My only objection with this texture pack is that grass (and possibly dirt too) could be less sharp and have less contrast. The grass looks like it has too many white spots on it. Also, I believe the Cobblestone and Mossy Cobblestone textures could be better. Other than that, I believe that is the best alternative at the moment.
Cisoun's pack would be my second favorite. But I don't believe some of its textures are as fitting for defaults, so I can't say I vote for it. Would however be nice if SOME textures from that package could be used over the Almost MC ones (such as the grass and torches).

I love textures from Ardorcraft there are under a MIT licence so no problem to use it!
You can find them in the ardorcraft API but the format is not good so i cut them. You can find textures here if somebody wants to make a 16x16 texture pack with it.
Free software exists to share so why not use it for MT? Ardorcraft is just an API it doesn't need a particular visual style (and Ardorcraft have already differents sets of textures) but MT needs one!

If i must vote for a pack in the list, i vote for Cisoun's texture pack because MT needs to be different than minecraft.
You can edit your post and add me to the list.
But IMHO monsters and tools sucks in cisoun's texture pack so mix all we have is a better solution.

you can define one not on the list but it should be minetest related the only reason i didnt add yours is because it haddent existed in minetest but can be converted so i think ill add your first suggestion

Why not mix some textures from the bests packs to create one another?
Not here for a while due to some troubles between my graphic card and Minetest.

New user here, I only started playing MT a week ago. Also, I never played MineCraft, so I think I´m relatively unbiased towards it being similar or different concerning the looks by the way.
By now I have checked out all the texture packs which were posted in this section (given that the links still worked).
One of my favourites is MineToon, but that has a pretty distinct style and while it is really neat I don´t think it should be the "official" default. In fact, the current default is really decent and generic, so I´ll vote for it. The only thing which bothers me about it is that the MESE blocks have written MESE on them - that looks extremely makeshift and therefore unprofessional. Decide on a color, make some funky texture based on stone and, for example, yellow, and there you have your MESE blocks. It is supposed to be some natural resource, right? Unless it was buried underground by some ancient civilization or aliens it shouldn´t have letters on it, that only kills immersion.
I also like the 4x4 pack, but that might be too minimalistic considering crafting more complex items.

made this specifically because of this thread.
Defaults Redefined v0.1(texture pack)- http://www.mediafire.com/?249dk9ffjszz5ed
this is what i think the defaults should look like, furnace needs animation when on and off tho.

Keep calm and code python^_^
I don't really care about what texture pack it will be in the end... Just one thing:
KEEP MESE!
It's the best joke of the game, if it looks like diamonds it would be quite unlogical (also mese sword, mese tools and mesecons would be nonsense).
Of course you can draw it in a different way, but keep it yellow! Also keep the word mese, please.
