Yes, the picture of what it turns into should be edited, I know it looks ugly. I am really tired and am not good at pixel art so I just edit already made pixel art till I can get better. Here is its stats of what I think it should be, feel free to give me constructive criticism on what you think needs edited.
Type:Item
Damage: 4
Stackable:Yes (16)
Throwing Distance:20 if on a flat plain maximum distance.
When thrown and hits: Javelin gets removed, deals damage
When thrown and misses: If not picked back up within 1 minute, same length as the arrow shot by a player, it gets removed.
The reason why I think this should be added into the game is it still leaves the 'Stuck in nowhere, gotta survive" feel to the game. But there are currently basically only seven ways to deal damage, they are:
Make a trench
Drown (Suffocating goes here as well)
Arrow
Sword
Lava
Hitting with random block
tnt
I think we need more, but it shouldn't make the game so easy you can be on top of a mountain, a creeper 80 blocks down, 90 blocks away can easily be hit and killed with one click of, lets say, a pistol. No, that is too overpowered, and guns would have way to good of range in Minecraft. It also shouldn't be like, for example, you make a club, and click on a creeper and have it loose 1/2 heart, that is under damage. What I am going for is something about as strong as the stone sword, so a little bit stronger than arrows, but longer-range then the sword. Obviously since this is better then an arrow but is basically like an arrow, it needs to have an arrow in the recipe. Then another stick so that way it gets the Javelin length, then lastly, another feather for gliding, this keeps it from just falling.
Like I said earlier, constructive criticism is highly appreciated, and I will read every reply put on this thread when I get the time. Oh yah, I may not be to view this thread for about 12 hours and read the replies, but hopefully that is not the case.

If you earn one, you can not give it away.
Javelins would be pretty handy, but why use a javelin if you already have bows and arrows? Besides, the "stuck nowhere, go to survive' wouldn't involve turning an arrow, a stick and a feather into a javelin to throw at one enemy. If you had a stick and a feather, you'd go find some gravel to get flint. And if you had an arrow, you'd fire it.
Honestly, I think a spear would be a bit better, combination of melee and ranged attacks would be quite furious.
Good idea though. It would be nice to have another means of killing various things, provided there were more of those things to kill.
