So I've been looking to create a creepy Hell-like castle. I've been searching pics on the internet for creepy or haunted mansions. One of the big things I've come across is blue fire (which is, in real life, just the hottest part of fire).
I was thinking, how could I get colored fire in Minecraft?
It seems to me that, as we are getting more and more colored items, it would be interesting to add colored netherrack to the mix. Instead of normal colored fire, it could produce green, blue, red, etc.
Potential issues I see is the lighting produced. Red flames (red being the darkest color on the spectrum) in a brightly lit room would make the appearance seem off. Also, the "color" of lighting has always been the same color, whereas colored fire produces a variety of interesting shading and colors.
So this is where the idea needs expanding from people smarter than me. Would assigning higher and lower levels make the ambiance lighting work? What if colored flame had no light level, and you had to determine it based on alternative lighting?
I don't know, but I guess I'm saying colored fire would be cool.

I'm all for both ideas. It'd be cool to not only have a variety in fire colors, but lighting colors. Rather then a typical torch/blow stone plain color, it could basically be a lava lamp for a room. I'd definitely use both.
