I really love this wacky spot, but I can't decide what to build... (note the main floating island is massive, bigger than you can really tell from the snapshot)

co-ords for main floating island: - x=699 y=234 z=-510
Probably a bit plain and boring but if it was me I'd build a giant staircase leading up to the larger island, dig the inside out and turn it into a floating house. Maybe turn a bit of the outside layer into a giant window?
Maybe a dwarves city? With walkways connection them and sort of an ancient style of build.
Oooh, I like this idea! Do you have any pictures of what you mean by ancient style? Cause when I try to build 'ancient' it usually turns out just looking nub. Do you mean like hobbit-hole type stuff?

Have a search of "Minecraft dwarven city" or "dwarven ruins" and have a look. In the pics there are lots of bridges and walkways that you could utilise in your area. Just have a search for ancient builds styles on google and have a bit of inspiration surfing

You could do something like what ImAnderzel did in Mindcrack Season 4, and build an old village on top of the islands.
Whatever you build, I think there should be a water feature. At the very least, the land under the island looks like it needs a water feature... a waterfall down the front so that cavelike opening is behind it?

Oooh nice I like the wooden staircase with a multi layered odd leveled house idea.

Playing Minecraft is our chance to escape the reality and mundaneness of everyday life, if only for a little while.

Do you mean like a waterfall coming off the floating islands? I was thinking I could build a house on the top floater and have the waterfall start in that house's garden, and have the waterfall end in a fancy water garden at ground level.

Something like that, yes. I think that would be awesome. :-) But even if you don't make a waterfall off the floating island, the non-floating mountain under the island really seems to be crying out for a waterfall to me.
I would build a very tall ancient wizard tower on top, and have a plank sticking out of the top. Then you can jump off the plank into the lake below. Also, build floating wool hoops going down the island, so when you jump off, try to fall through the hoops.
It doesn't have to be that fancy, it is all about enjoying what you build, & these were all ideas for you to pick whatever you're comfortable with.
Also, if you're ever done with it, I'd like to see your work, good luck

a base or a mob spawner

A castle? For floating-castle-y goodness?

this is kinda off topic, but what is your resource pack? i really like it!

I would attach a giant balloon to the top of the floating island, and build a steampunk themed city underneath.
That'd be dank
Maybe a sky port, with a helipad, lighthouse, some windmills, & a rail system.
It could be either a modern technological port, or a magical or steampunk styled port.
Its your decision at the end

What's the seed?
Sounds awesome but a tad beyond my building skills
And the seed and co-ords I already posted in the Seeds forum. Texture pack in the photo is Sphax PureBDCraft (which I'm not a huge fan of myself, and won't be using). http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/minecraft-discussion/seeds/2534009-awesome-double-floating-island-seed

Ever seen bioshock infinite and the floating sky cities? They would be awesome inspiration for a landscape like this.
Maybe a few Zeppelin airships and the steampunk windmills.
You have all the freedom in the world to build what you want there.
