Ever noticed that you can't use worldedit to copy/paste paintings? or how using /killall removes paintings? Well, I'd like to make a request that changes the Painting ID into a placable block with tile data / sub-IDs so that not only could we choose each block via NEI or something, but also copy it via worldedit. However, it would still have to be able to get random paintings when placed. The problem with this is that the painting would be able to be placed on one block, but not need an entire 3x3 to show a 3x3 painting, (which is a downfall of turning it into a block.) I'd still rather have it as a block though.
Another downfall of changing it into a block, is that it will clip through blocks if you place it in a 1x1 hole, and it decides to not show a 1x1 painting.
