Reserved in case the first post gets huge.

Just a question on the circles, does anyone have something similar but displaying a "true circle"?
As in a circle, from the side, at any angle should look the same. The last one there can look flatish at same parts (north, south of circle) while being completly curved at others( North-East and North-West). I'm looking for one that is equal all the way around.

You stole Fantom's joke :0

[King_Fluffy]

Fantom didn't make it up, that particular saying existed on the internet before and I knew of it. He just said it before me :P

hehe

also fluffy i fear that's nearly impossible using square blocks, this is the closest you'll get
i believe these were made by drawing a real circle through the squares and then filling in the squares the circle passes through

Yeah, the only way for it to look more circular is to make larger and larger circles :P

My stargate is sort of round but more of a diamond if you ask me :?

A MineCraft Wiki how-to install single player maps. This one helped me quite a bit today, when I got to load the sheep cannon map. Quite the blast! Ha ha...

What I use for Sphere's, if anyone wants to create one with with a larger diameter. You have to set all the dimensions to 1, and remember the value you are entering is RADIUS, so the circle will be twice as wide as whatever you input.

The larger you get the longer it takes to render, but this is hella useful for building sphere's.
