My thought is that placing maps on walls could be done by placing a picture on a wall and than right-clicking the placed picture with the map. the map would be 'placed' in the picture frame so that when you broke the picture/map off the wall you received both. I came up with this by realizing that the picture is really a picture frame, because the picture changes with each placement. the size of the map on the wall is determined by the size of the picture on the wall ahead of time. Imagine that you take the map in your hand and simply stretch it over the picture you already have up, you need the picture to stay on the wall so that the map has something to hold it to the wall.

I agree that map books would be nice but hanging them would be nice too. yes it would be a decoration but for the wall of some Keep or fort, it would totally fit. Like in the war room of a Castle or some such, or on a server near the spawn point like a "you are here"
Yes we need this. This, or maybe you could craft a framed map the same way you craft a picture, but with a map in stead of wool. So, eight sticks in the crafting table with a map in the middle. But would you be able to switch maps in and out of frames, or would they stay there?
I LOVE the idea of placing maps on walls, but it would have to require it to work only on painting sized 1x1, 2x2, 3x3, or 4x4. Otherwise the whole map wouldn't show.
I would also like to place maps horizontally, along with paintings for this purpose. I desire a war room below my base with a massive table tiles with maps of the surrounding area. Along the walls will be zoomed-in maps of key areas, and a few mosaics of more distant regions.

hope one OR both get implemented, cause now figuring out which map is for which region is just a pain and no fun at all.
