I may not be the first to think up this idea, but I want to throw it out there regardless that I really wish this game had some stained glass features.
I'm an avid builder, I would love love LOVE to have this as an addition to my glass structures so that I can make them stunning. I'm sure many crazy builders out there would love to be able to do this to! ;D
I can see the function probably along the lines of maybe using two dyes and a glass block in order to stain the glass?
If you can dye wool, why not glass? I want to make beautiful windows! Grrrr!
What do you guys think? Do you guys want some stained glass in our MC?
Edit: And before people start jumping on me telling me this has already been suggested and to search, and not post; It's not spam or necro, it's just "refreshing" the idea to the public to continue discussion. If it keeps coming up, then it bears relevance and deserves it's soap box for conversation. :smile.gif:

Optifine is awesome!
Now, when can Notch start using 3D instead of linear chunks for minecraft? It would massively improve performance, and increase height limits by hundreds of times. There are mods out there that do that already.
Notch made some under-the-breath statement of "it would be hard to do" or somesuch that made mention of no. I would personally like to see this done; but I have also seen this idea rejected by Mojang. Not quite sure what the rationale is...

Aside, though dubious, I approve,
Sadness. No stained glass depiction of me hugging a creeper? No glass fortress for me? Opaque stairs are too tacky in a transparent structure. Oh well. Back to using glass to build underwater halls and cities.
I dream of an endless day,
Though my sight be such a haze
But what I can see perfectly,
Is a colored light for eternity.
Begone foul creeper!
For you are a pest!
And as my dream goes deeper,
Subconsciousness does the rest.
Let them all see my glorious creation!
And be it a happy day!
A different shade for every nation!
And nothings on my way.
But then I see a beast
Only nightmares can conceive
A dark horror on me it feasts
Oh how I wish I wouldn't perceive
And when it fells me with the killing blow,
A light comes from the heavens
The beast explodes in multicolored glow,
And color comes percentage one hundred and tens
Colored lighting what I wish for most
Doing nothing but basking on it
A blue panel to scare a ghost
Feel the green light on my face while I sit.
I love light and color!
More so when they combine!
No need to fear or cower!
For colored lighting shall be mine!
Food 4 Thought.
Hope y'all like that rhyme made by me :biggrin.gif:
GO COLOAR LAITING!
what i would like to see is if you could get lapis and other colorful blocks and somehow get them to craft into panes of lupis, essentially giving you stained glass using some craft recipe that combines diamonds/lapis/gold/etc, with pains of glass.
i like the idea. But how about colored sand and melt that in to colored glass.
Instead of using dye directly on glass.
Well, that'd actually be more realistic. Dye the sand instead of the glass. Thanks for bringing that up.
Although, I worry the devs could do the dye to glass if a bad case of the coding lazies comes over them. Less time consuming to just make and code the colored glass than make the colored glass and its respective glass as well. Bah, what am I saying?! This is Notch we're talking about. He doesn't know the concept of coding laziness. All the pre-releases and ingenuity with redstone are proof of that.

He thinks it's hard to add new blocks to the game?
Notch said some-were on the line that colored light would be a tad.....difficult . I personally want colored glass, no idea why mojang does not want it.

I know! I'm currently working on a Gothic Renaissance castle that would benefit greatly from some stained glass right now.
But it's not just for Old style architecture. I think it would just be stylish in many ways; retro, contemporary or otherwise. :biggrin.gif:
There's a mod on the forums here that has done something like this, so I hope until Notch and co. try this it'll do.
I also want glass stairs. Glass fortress ftw!!
Glass stairs... *drool*
I want sandstone stairs to. I'm surprised that there isn't any sandstone stairs made yet. It would be great for desert structures.

It'd be great if you were to give us some details on how your "stained glass" would work.
Crafting table -> Glass + (Place color here) Dye
Simple.
