Hello I think there should be a way to make water (and lava) flow/fly(shoot) up (so you can make stuff like volcano's or geysers or just make an upside down waterfall).

that would not loo very good, just a waterfall from ground to 256... and you dont need to invert the flow to make geysers or volcanoes. In fact rp2 adds some very nice looking volcanoes without doing that.

well the water would only go up so high before ether comes down or stops (I think it would open a world of new possibilitys for creativity)

Adding a pump in that sucks up water from a toggleable input and shoots it from a toggleable output (Toggleable meaning direction dependent on the direction it's placed; input on the back when placing) would be interesting to accomplish this, but then you have the issue of how you'd suck up an infinite water source...

very carefully

Just place a water block above a dirt block in the air, and remove the dirt, and it looks like a geyser, but then you can't turn it on/off. :/

It'd be neat to have something like this in vanilla, but I'm not quite sure how it'd really work.

but still the water is only flowing down. I think water should be able to flow up with some rules tho like how are water doesn't just flow up. we can ether make like a redstone jetstream block (or something idk) when powered it will suck up water from under it and shoot it up x-high (can put like a thing of gravel or something on top of it and ad some levers to make an elevator). or we can make like a water flow tube (has an arrow and water can only flow in that direction through it when you when you place it down the arrow is away from you and for every 2 blocks it dose down the water will travel up 1 block(or something like that so there is still the possibility of it going up but it is limited ) and if you make it go down like 20 then up 1 the water will shoot up out of it the height. maybe combine it with a jetstream block to push the water up a realy high piller of pipes befor a big drop. (there would be a lot you could do if water would be able to go up)
