Mayday's DF resource pack is awesome, although I hate what it often does with the text. I found a happy compromise later on while searching through a resource archive, I'll try to link to that, too... can't do it while at work, as probably everyone at EoFF knows by now.

If I can get Mayday's pack without it inserting random levers into names, I will be a happy happy Huxley

Can you give me an example of what you mean? I don't think I've ever had this happen, but then, I don't know what these levers look like, either.

Oh, well when you said "I hate what it does with the text" I assumed you meant that. Basically when you use some graphic packs, they change some letters into things which are not letters. For instance levers, trees, wells, that sort of thing. This means that in the actual writing of the game, you might see Urist McAxe*warf, where you've got the sprite for a lever where the * is.
Ah, the only thing I noticed is that capital O's look like they are merely giant circles, much thinner than the rest of the font involved. But then, my pack is using a combination of Mayday stuff and something else, it's much better than the default Mayday pack.
The thing I disliked about the default Mayday pack was that it put a background colour behind each letter when they would have looked better without it. I can't remember exactly how it turned out but it looked similar to highlighting all the text on a word document. In the menu especially, it was gross looking.

Yo, Jeremy, can you hook me up with the save file? Thanks. How did the fire start? Fire imps? Oh man, I bet you've left me with a nice tantrum spiral to deal with.
I believe there's some mod you can get that removes all accented characters from names. Also, Stonesense v4 was released yesterday and it is pretty sweet. As for graphics, Mayday's works best at like, 1200ish (I can't remember the number as I don't use it) resolution and I have 1024, so I use my own modified version of Dystopian Rhetoric's.
If dead people want to be re-dwarfed (eg Christmas II) in my turn then let me know!
WHERE AM I AND WHY AM I NOT ENGRAVING!?!?>!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I need to engrave the death of Christmas by fire!
You are responsible for all of the engravings around the death chamber at the bottom of the Trade Depot pit.
Okay, home and have found the link and attached screenshots of what it looks like.

Man, those graphical tilesets are so ugly to me.
These ones are pretty.
Does StoneSense still allow you to have full functionality?

You can't play through it. It just displays what's going on.
