I think it would be great if you could craft an end portal frame. A good recipe would be something like this:
The "hole" in the top of the recipe is because of the hole where you put the Eye of Ender.
Now it shouldn't give you the same End Portal Frame block that's found in strongholds. The craftable kind shouldn't actually create a portal if the frame is built in the End (to prevent leaving the End without defeating the dragon), but on the plus side it will be destroyable. It would drop as an item that could be picked up, but won't return an Eye of Ender inside it unless you use Silk Touch. (Or maybe it couldn't be picked up at all without Silk Touch.)
Now remember, you need twelve of these to actually make an End Portal. Therefore, it would require 72 blocks of End Stone, and 24 Ender Pearls. Not to mention the 12 Eyes of Ender you need to use (unlike in a stronghold none of them will already have Eyes of Ender.)
This would be very useful if you want to actually build stuff in the End, but don't want to have to run to a stronghold every time you want to get there. It could also be used for one-way fast travel back to your spawn, considering that's where you go after leaving the End. Though it would still be a considerable investment to actually do so.
Anyone else think this would be a good addition to Minecraft?
Might be better if it used 3 diamonds instead of 2 ender pearls and looks a normal end portal block but with cyan at the top instead of that green.
I thought of that too, but diamonds have enough uses as it is, and it's still expensive enough IMO. Plus, it just makes sense to have ender pearls there.

It should be the same as a normal end portal frame, although they should both be able to be broken by an iron pickaxe because it's made of End stone.

Yeah I guess that would make sense. End Portal Frame is never really in the End anyway, so there's no reason the same block as in strongholds should work in the End.

There are not that many used for diamonds as there could be. It has to be expensive or then people would just heaps of them.
At first I was like: What? That's stupid. Then I realised that you needed end stone to make it, so it wouldn't be stupid.
I don't see the need for this, but it would certainly help for when people have buildings in the end.
The only problem that could arise is that if someone brought enough enderpearls(or killed enough endermen) with them into the end that they could make a portal to return without killing the enderdragon, but then again that could be fixed by making eyes of ender unusable in the end.
I don't dislike the idea, but I don't really see the need for it either.

Actually, it is impossible to get a portal in the end till the dragon is killed, even in creative. Support.

Note that end portals and nether portals cannot be activated in the nether. Only the generated one by killing the dragon works.
Not expensive enough. There's endstone all around you and enderman all around you. It'd be easy to make. It needs to include something more expensive like diamonds.
This idea wouldn't be all that bad, Sometimes i take risk but it turns out stupid for only after you get there and dying getting your items is next to impossible or actually it is impossible to far and you wouldn't get there before your items have already disappeared.

Actually the chunks wouldn't be loaded so you could take your time getting your items back.

Uh...last time I checked Nether portals can be activated in the Nether. Don't you mean in the End?
