However, I need this to go up to a 101 square circle, and have no idea how to re-create the pattern that is used in this picture (i have tried using pixels in paint, as well as the circle making tool, but neither are doing the job), so I was wondering if anyone here knew of a formula to use, or could possibly extend the graph themselves.
MSPaint makes crappy circles. If I had to guess, I'd say the person who made that guide built them all by hand in Minecraft to make sure they looked right, then exported to PNG. I'm not sure what's the best tool for making them, though.
Yes! Thank you so very much, this is exactly what I needed!
I am creating a bio-dome made out of glass (inspired by viewtopic.php?f=35&t=20984 <-- that guy) but after my first attempts to establish a base to build on with paint (which i realized was doomed to fail miserably after i got about 1\4th of it filled in) I decided that I needed something much more exact (like this marvelous diagram you have provided me with!) to go off of.
I created an excel spreadsheet to map circles for me. Just enter the desired radius and it draws it all out. It's nice because each cell has an x and y coordinate, so it's hard to loose track of where you are. I tried to attach, but the file type was disallowed.
I realize this thread is old but I have a similar need but on a much larger scale. I need a 2600 diameter circle. if you're wondering what a massive circle like this is used for.... It is something that I found out another had planned to do but has hitherto not presented. It is for a Neo Midgar design based as closely as possible on Midgars construction from the available CGI's, pictures, structural plans, and models. So, if anyone can show me a picture of or give me a tool to generate a 2600 diameter circle it would be greatly appreciated.

change the file extension and tell us what to change it to
So if you want to calculate this with a calculator, block by block, you can use Sinus and Cosinus, if you do not understand what those are, wait till you learn it in school, if you do... use it...
sinus are the air pockets in your head... you mean sine and cosine?
I made a web app that allows you to create circles and ellipses, you can check it out at www.mineconics.net. It's still a work in progress, I plan on adding support for spheres, saving designs, sharing designs, etc. Let me know what you think and if you have any problems or suggestions.
I think someone needs to create a piece of software (like MCedit) that is specially made to make templates/designs of circles. That way people wouldn't have to make a diagram for every dimension or size of circle. Anyone who is smart, good with computers and is devoted to spending a hell of a lot of time doing this, please! Every minecrafter out there needs help making circles!!!!!

You rock!! This is extremely helpful. Thanks so very much.. :smile.gif:
That web app is really useful! But when your internet connection is down (or you can't use it for some reason), I suggest Paint.NET. It's really simple to create circles with that.
1.File>New
Width: radius+1
Heigth: radius+1
Resolution: 1
3.Turn on grid
4.Zoom in>Select the ellips tool>Click (and hold) on the middle square>Draw to the other side while holding shift.
5.Done!

Really? They looked fine to me. May you please elaborate?

This is a signature. There should be something here....
Oh wait! There is!
So... I realize this is an ancient thread but it pertains exactly to what I need. Basically I need a circle that has I diameter of 400 blocks. I am not sure how I would make a plan for this and google is no help so...
Again I apologies for bringing back this thread but why should I create another topic when there is one here already.
I'm sure we're (or most of us are) familiar with this picture.

I was making a schematic and it was a large circular City....
This really helped!
Diamonds to you
