My effort to turn the tide of the talk away from torches and lanterns, since I can't think of any more incredibly boring subject in the face of such an interesting update.

What do you think hellgates will or should look like? Triple bonus points if you post pics - doodles or photoshopped minecraft images, for example.
I suspect they'll be some variation on the theme of:
Obviously rock types can vary widely.
I'll see about 'shopping a picture during my next break at work.
Possibly, I think it might be some sort of column of energy which looks like a waterfall, but when you look through it, it's inverted. It might appear randomly.

Hosting images on MediaFire? Are you high on cat urine?
i would love something like this a slightly creepy inconspicous door wirth really detailed etchings and then you open it and you just see a swirling vortex
I would -like- it to be friggin' huge... but it's a fast travel dimension, gonna get a lot of use, so it's probably gonna be small.
If you could make your own portals that would be cool, but Notch hasn't said which one he's gonna do yet. (make your own or randomly placed)
It would also be cool if you could make the shape of the portal, like Hotec said, a new portal "block" that when you touch it you get transported to hell. Then you could make small and big ones, of whatever shape and size you want. I would definitely build one like in WoW, the Dark Portal, all huge and dark and menacing. Too bad you can't have statues in Minecraft, that would be awesome.

that stone might require you to visit hell to get it so it may not work.
Kidding. xD
Violet = portal material
At least that could serve as the main portal, the one that wouldn't need to be built or anything.
Ooh. That's my favourite so far.
Where is similar to a mob cage but spawns a portal on top of it.
waht game is this?
:VV:= portal material

= Mob spawner cages
=Keystone
Where red = redstone
And then it would make a portal two squares under it.
Where = Keystone
= portal generated

But yeah, another guy did this with another portal idea, but I'll link to what I'm talking about
