I think it would be great to have a set of "Alpha-Numeric Blocks" which to explain, would be blocks with numbers or letters on them. 1 number or letter per block, on all 6 sides, 2 tone color scheme. AND I think it would be awesome if we could use dye to dye the blocks letter/number & the background color of the block.
I think this could help when labeling buildings, making street signs, etc.... I know we already have "signs" but they are so small and cant read from a distance so this could be a very useful tool to have on Minecraft.
The PC version added BANNERS not too long ago which can be manipulated into large letters- but it's kind of laborious- I like/support this idea over the banners- blocks would integrate nicely into builds, too (but we might have to settle for banners or wish for a console exclusive)
just an additional idea.....maybe instead of making a full set of these blocks, they make us 1 "Alpha Numeric" Block that works kinda like a sign so when you pick the block from the inventory its a "blank" block that somewhat resembles "Wool" but when placed a screen pops up where you choose the number -or- letter to display on that block. this might make it easier for the developers to create and integrate into the game.
I would fully support this idea, across all platforms - XBOX 360/One, PS3/4 and so on. And if you hadnt mentioned it in your second post, I would have about making it a "customizable" block. Select whatever character you want in it. I'd say it should also support things like exclamation points, question marks, etc.

Wow not only did I seemingly have a good idea for a change but a Mod liked it also!? You made my day homie, and YES I totally agree to it including other characters!

No problem. Moderators including myself are gamers just like you. Cant deny a good idea when i see it.
