Realy we can't use the same structures? ;O Then i'l use my imagination and create something Smile

We could use the same structures, if we can prove that we built them - that is, we have a world, where the structures are laid out in a square grid (a world definitely not generated by vanilla)

Call me paranoid, but I've already been bitten by the copyright law and I don't want to get bitten again.

You should "wrap" your structure in some kind of a NOP block. When the structure is merged into the world, it needs to know where to keep the original blocks - such as outside the rounded corners.

I personally use sponge, because that's a block that still exists in MC but isn't used anywhere at all.

Why do people love super-dark screenshots so much? "Wow, yeah, a black rectangle, kudos!" wtf?

Code:
/time set day

Or just a torch or two

I've added sponges to the desert temple. With the jungle temple I think its better if the normal terrain could overlaps all the air.

Aren't Strongholds basically the same as Mineshafts? They have one starting point. The Mineshaft has the dirt room and the stronghold has the portal room and they have branches around them with sometimes chests.
EDIT:
One big difference is that there are only 3 strongholds in one world.

They basically are. And I was thinking that we could have more strongholds than just three.

It would be awsome if it was configurable.
