I don't really care about colored lighting, and I'm not sure just how well it would work, but the colored glass on its own is an excellent idea, and you've rather well thought out all the processes around it. I'd love to see this get into an update.
You've clearly thought this out, and those sample screenshots are amazing. I never knew how much I wanted natural glowing crystals in Minecraft until just now.
I also had the colored sand idea, and I definitely think it would be a sensible and elegant way of creating colored glass. Not to mention the possibilities for large scale sand art and colored sandstone.
if the only reason mojang won't put colored glass in vanilla is because you can't see 2 opacities through each other, I think this is a perfect example that colored glass can be just as effective this way without the fancy transparency blending. I think they should go for it.
I love how vibrant your colors are.
I completely agree. There have been fully functioning Stained Glass/ Colored glass mods since at least beta 1.7.3, perhaps earlier. There is no game breaking reason to not include them in vanilla and they are fairly easy to add.
And thank you for the compliments! However those are not my mods. That one screenshot I made was using bobwontrolle's GlassCraft Mod, and I'm not sure who did the texture. btw: GlassCraft will be updating for MC 1.3.2 in a week or two. Also; the pics in that one spoiler came from yet another mod called 'Coloured Glass and Panes Mod' by AlexM. And StainedGlass Mod is even older then those two, though there is more than one going by that name. .
Really? Then how do you explain the old pics below? People have been making colored glass mods for at least 1 to 2 years now, and they work just fine...
That screenshot is one I made with GlassCraft back in MC 1.1. The mod has been updated for 1.2.5 btw. - Behind the Yellow Stained Glass you can see the irrigation ditch in the Villager farm. It is full of water, but the water is invisible through the glass.
And just for the sake of more Stained Glass Inspiration for everyone, below is a Spoiler full of Stained Glass screenshots from AlexM's Coloured Glass and Panes Mod thread OP.
and with a custom glass texture for each glass color it's so awesome
e.g.: 128px (these are jpg, original 256px png have a complex transparency/aplha) green brown blue lime silver or yellow orange
oO. Those Stained Glass images are so beautiful. Do you make them available somewhere in their original form or would you mind telling me where to get them?
Thanks!

Voted this up.

Plus! I just found this Mod which has been around since v1.0.0 but now also have Colored Glass!
Decoratives Mod by Ian5133. It has a version for MC 1.2.5 and will likely update for 1.3.2 as well, I hope.

Aha! I knew they'd been around for a long time in one form or another.
