I don't particularly mind the grass, but I CANNOT STAND the water. In the server update, a large skycity with water now has one third swamp and two thirds normal water. Looks terrible. If it was smooth transition it would be fine.

Not everything in nature is a euphoric wonderland of beauty. Sometimes nature has to have that blemish, and it's a fact of life.
And sudden transitions like that do exist in nature. Just take a look at Rio Negro in the Amazon river.
True but This is Minecraft, not real life, besides look again at the transitions on the first post.. I've never seen nature transition like that anyways.

There should definitely be some phasing between biomes, and maybe instead of coding the overlay they should put it in the textures and just overlay whatever is in there with a transparency. /signed

If Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter were all destroyed, 90% of teens would go insane. If you're one of the 10% that would be laughing at them, copy this into your signature and hope it happens.
Okay, I added everyone to the list who popped in last night with a '/signed' in their post. I also did my best to accommodate those who wanted me to put in different usernames or the names of their friends/siblings.
If your name is not on the list and you want it to be on the list, please drop a comment to let me know!
Now that this petition has reached popular status and has well over a hundred supporters (thanks everyone!) we need to think of where to go from here, and how to make sure Mojang sees this petition and the amount of overwhelming support behind it. Let's brain storm, guys!
Ok but you have to realise that they are still working on it patience is a virtue
We all know they're still working on it, but some things should never have been allowed to pass through the v1.0 barrier...full game status...if you'd kind of conveniently forgotten!!

Does anyone get the sense that some people will blindly make excuses for anything.
No one here is asking for 'pretty' swamps, and the example you give of course obviously exists in nature (though even in the pic above there is a merging of edges and the colour there is acceptable), however, it is not what one would call a 'typical' swamp environment that the majority would imagine Mojang had in mind when they thought, "lets include swampland."
The combination of stark colour, zero transition and the green celophane over the water is just plain ugly to the sensibilities of the majority. This is obviously a mistake, it's been overlooked in favour of more flashy things like dragons, but it shouldn't have been in the game at version 1.0 release.
Give me Nandonalt's water mod and the old biome transitions any day.

I admit, I actually enjoy the swamps, they're a nice place to build an ominous tower or run down village. What I don't like, however, is the sharp contrast it creates when it transitions. I've had many a moat ruined by sharp lines of blue slicing through my green. I'm in all favour for this change, all of us texturepackers could benefit.

this is not a one word post.
Want the blight town experience? pay someone to throw rocks at you as you tightrope across two buildings.
Want the sens fortress experience? pay someone to throw rocks at you as you tightrope across two buildings.
Want the anor londo experience? pay someone to throw rocks at you as you tightrope across two buildings.
Build a bridge and get over it!..
Cr*p, the new swamps are fine to me and i like them... People here have major problems O_o.
Oh my god YES!
We need this petition to be signed by everybody!
(Sign it with my real username, rodophita. No capitals.)
For some reason my main world,which I have since beta 1.1, is now a swamp...
It was a snow biome before!
Now there is lying snow on the ugly grass :/

It was a good idea, they just look bad. They need to be fixed.
If they can't be fixed, they need to be reverted to 1.8.1 colors.
End of story.
I still use "I" as my inventory key. Everyone who doesn't press "I" is wrong. How can people who press "e" live with themselves?

they're ugly, the end.
Trees can turn brown (and die) half-way. They won't turn dark green, but you did ask if "a tree changing color half-way" existed.
But still, I will sign. I'm just pointing out that it exists.
It doesn't matter much to me either way, though.
This bothers so many people and it doesn't bother me at all. What is /wrong/ with me?
(I'm insane! *thumbs up*)
