Hey ScottKillen,
I came up with a new type of biome...
Its called SklyLand, it are some floating islands above the ocian biome... (now the ocian has some kind of perpise)
There will be some floating rock around the size of 3*4 (something like that) Made out of a new block what looks like a light version of cobblestone. to get to the first block there is a water string going down. so you have to do some parkor to get to the last platform. with is like a forest biome in the sky... I want it to look like it was a pice of land and it broke and floatet away... (if its poseble maybe a light version of the regiuer old tree (sorry i fergot the name of it) and a loght type of grass. there will be ores inside the floating platform... but nothigher than iron/gold. inside the steps up there can also be ores but only coal... It woudt also be cool if there is a random chance that in the generation there comes down a water stream from the big platform... and also if there are lakes just on top of the platform/island... if you want to use this new biome i came up with, go ahaid. If you want to modify it, go ahaid. as long as you tell me whats up im O.K. with it.

This would be interesting...but I'm not sure how much is doable in a biome mod as biomes are really sort of strong suggestions to the terrain generator about how the terrain inside the biome should appear and details, like water in specific places are extremely difficult.

This would make a good mod on its own.

Also, the last sentence is confusing as it appears that you are retaining some ownership of this idea that you have submitted to the community...I don't really understand what you are saying there.

Thank you for your idea, but we will not be implementing this particular one.
