To the forum moderators: Although the screenshots forum is under "Show Your Creation", this thread technically follows all rules and many other threads that don't exactly show a creation are still existent, so there's no reason why this thread should be locked/deleted/moved. Do NOT move this to the Discussion forum. Read below as to why it shouldn't be in there.
I'll try to make this as short as possible. Threads concerning a major problem in the terrain generator have spawned across this website, but they are all debate. Some of you may know I'm on the "For" side on that argument, but this thread doesn't have to be a "For" or an "Against" argument. It's what you want it to be.
This thread was made specifically because of the debate. I wanted to create a thread in which arguing doesn't exist. This thread does not technically suggest that any opinion is greater than another. But facts are facts.
Now that we got that out of the way... I present to you a collection of pre-1.8 terrain! Feel free to roam around random page numbers and random posts!
If this thread stays alive long enough, I will create a more organized specific terrain-type section here in the OP. For example, mountains go here and snowy terrain goes there, etc.
A Wonderous Mess
Back to when I liked finding beaches!
I want to explore this so badly... My version of Death Mountain from X's series?
This was the last world I made before 1.8 hit. It was also the first world I loaded up in 1.8. The game now thinks it's a desert, but it still has its charm.
-875; 800, seed: -1882488422
I don't know why, but this terrain is so beautiful...
Edit: Awesome!
-850; 800, seed: ((new Random(100)).nextInt(505)
I know that this seed has typo, don't fix it.
//Yes, this is mod, but it seems to be 100% exact. I just like to use Creative mode for this.
//And the only different things here are clouds and creative mode.

You sir, I respect for having the initiative to post a thread like this with such careful wording; and though I infrequently share pictures of my server, I shall share a picture of one of my in-development areas which sports some lovely Beta 1.7 generated terrain. Such lovely shapes.
World Info: Mixed, multi-generation land; seed: Undisclosed

Warning: No screenshot yet.
The funny thing about this is that I still get pretty epic land masses forming in 1.2.5. Some of them quite resemble the pictures above. I don't know if it's the seeds I use or just random. But either way...

Reason for this Thread's Existence
This thread was made specifically because of the debate. I wanted to create a thread in which arguing doesn't exist. This thread does not technically suggest that any opinion is greater than another. But facts are facts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thread Guidelines
-PRE-1.8 IMAGES ONLY!!!!!
- Try to keep most of your pictures original
- No Beta-1.8 images or images from more current versions
- Try to keep away from really early versions of Minecraft. Late Alpha is fine.
- Post your images in spoilers. To do this, simply follow this guideline:
1) Take picture and upload to image hosting website such as http://imgur.com.
2) Copy the Direct Link, click the image icon on the Post Toolbar, and paste the Direct Link.
3) Place a {spoiler} behind your image and place a {/spoiler} at the other end of the image. (Use "[ ]" instead of "{ }")
- If you appreciate this thread, we urge you to submit a picture!!
- All of your pictures do not need to be "epic." But they are encouraged.
- You can ask a poster for the seed in his/her pictures, but don't request landscapes.
- Keep arguing at a minimum. There are numerous related threads for that.
- The only point being made here is the one forming in your mind. Remember that.
(I understand that this subforum promotes criticism but think of this as a hub or an album - not a persuasion/discussion thread.)

Does Minecraft Pocket Edition count? I'm pretty sure it uses the pre-1.8 generation. If so:
Seed is -2012 .
It resembles the pre-1.8 generator even though it may not be the exact same generator. Looks close enough to near perfect, so YES.
(Awesome pic btw)
Here is repost of my screenshot message in previous thread.
Just a beautiful view. And a gravel beach. Want some flat terrain? And there are extreme mountains too! But not all of them are cliffs.
I don't know why, but this terrain is so beautiful...

This rock deserves to be built on. End of discussion.
The funny thing about this is that I still get pretty epic land masses forming in 1.2.5. Some of them quite resemble the pictures above. I don't know if it's the seeds I use or just random. But either way...
Edit:
Screw your extreme hills... rather be on this right now!
Unfortunately I lost all my old worlds to modding, I haven't had a good SP world since
SIKE!!
I have no "amazing" pictures, but I will post some 1.7.3 generator pictures:
I love how the old generator mix the biomes so smooth. It makes a peaceful effect.
The seed is "rabia y veneno", but I don't think that care too much.
Thanks for make this thread,
