Friendly Reminders for 1.8... [see new posts]

The new prismarie blocks look so cooL. I WANT THEN NOW. But the new guardian mob is ugly as all hell.
 
It has been tested and confirmed that these new ocean monuments will spawn in old chunks. It can be a bit glitchy in some scenarios, but for the most part it works just fine. So with luck those of us who have oceans in our town limits will receive a nice gift in 1.8.

Ermagawd I want a rabbit now. I will have a bunny farm and a sheepy farm and eat their delicious yum yums all night long.

More recently jeb_ showed a pic of someone CARRYING one of those banners, by it being in their head or chest slot. I cannot find the image though.
 
Sounds like there'll just be a huge pool of options you can mix and match to create a banner, rather than being able to upload a png or something whereby there would be a lot of.... explicit content banners floating around.
