I registered just so I could post these - all blocks are surrounded by a gray border, and solid black pixels are intended to be transparent. In order of tiles from top to bottom, boxes containing two tiles are the side graphic and the top/bottom graphic, boxes with three tiles are top, side, and then bottom graphic. Boxes with one graphic means all faces of the cube are identical.
From left to right:
Mario Brick, Item Brick, Solid Brick, Brick, Ancient Brick, Marble, Asphalt, Crate, Metal, Ladder, and Scaffold.
The mario bricks are there 'cause they're cool. Regular bricks would be excellent for houses; numerous players build them and this would give an entirely new construction medium. The 'Ancient Brick' (for lack of a better name) is meant to replace the similar tile that was taken out or MineCraft a while back. The marble is great for the floor to a mansion or something, the asphalt takes the place of a much needed black block. Great for roads and the like. I've noticed many people using the existing wooden block as crates because none exists; many players would appreciate an actual crate. The metal is just your average solid block. When touching and walking in the direction of the ladder, you go up.
Please consider all these block types for inclusion in MineCraft.
You know, some would be pretty sweet, but Minecraft isn't going to be free forever and is going to be sold some day, we it'd be illegal to use the copyrighted material from Nintendo.
I'm working on a complete overhaul of all the current tile graphics to present to notch in a couple days plus many unanimously desired new blocks.
Watch for it.
I'm going to do the art myself and won't accept any external art. That said, I have no problem with people "hacking" the client to show custom tilesets. =)
I like the brick tiles! I knew there was some tile I forgot in the last tile update.
Awww, that stinks. I was really hoping to get some nice graphics into that game.
Grr.
I'll still finish them though, in hopes of changing your mind :3 This is a labor of love - I just want to make MineCraft a better game. I desire nothing in return for my graphics. Seriously. Just in case that's what's keeping you from using them.
And an FYI, I'm a programmer. If you don't put these graphics in, I'll be forced to make my own sandbox game with them in it. *evil laugh*
Holy crap.
Nice idea.
Man, this post should be pretty old if Notch actually talks to minecrafters personally.
*Slaps Lol* You just made a 16 month bump. Thats a no-no.
Its cool that Notch himself actually posted on this thread, though, and also neat to know the origins of the brick block.

~ I've thought about the phrase 'Money is the root of all evil' and I have to disagree. Evil isn't dependant on an object. I say that want is the root of all evil.
LOL
People REALLY get pissed off for bumps...
:3
*facedesk*
People get upset when you Necromance the **** out of a thread from the middle ages, they simply get annoyed when you bump recent things.

notch cannot put the mario mystery block in or else it would be copyright infringement lawsuits all over the place. even more so that he makes a profit out of it

If you can understand the apple of Minecraft, you understand the meaning of life.
In other words, find 72 gold and 1 apple just to heal 10 hearts with one use. The point is to just prove that you went that far in the game to even make the golden apple.
At first I was terribly confused by the fact that half of these are already in the game. Then I read the first reply, and then that made me look at the date. ****ing necromancers, what's their business?

I saw the first 3 blocks, and though 'Oh, boy, copyrighted content in a pay game. Like this is ever going to get in.'
Then I looked on and saw the rest of them. I have to say that those later blocks should DEFINITELY be in the game, bar none.
Watch for it.
Yes, like a black block :/
Grr.

That's not supposed to be your answer. I don't feel like doing all the dirty work. lol.
