Hello Everybody!

Welcome to my blog for this contest! :)

My idea: Mod Selection!

There are tons of mods out there to choose from right? That means, we get the hard task of installing everything. I as a modder, try to code as best as I can to make installation easy and stress free, but it's simply not enough. How about having a mod selection bar where everything is there for you?!

Example of the home screen:

Example of the mod selection gui:

Why I want this added into minecraft:
I want this added into minecraft for the simple reason that it could save everybody time and make things so much easier! Lets be honest, Mojang did this for texture packs, So why not do them for mods? I would love to see this in minecraft some day!

I think this idea is pretty straight forward, So tell me what you think!

Mojang talks about it.. But you know.. They are 8 updates behind now.. almost 9. But if you want to talk about originality, Nice "obsidian boats" idea. Its been made before.. Probably 100 times. It's a horrible Idea. Lava is meant to kill you. Think about it. When would you ever see somebody taking a ride in a boat in a volcano? Never.

I've never seen an obsidian boats idea before, and do you really think minecraft is realistic?

They are trying to be a bit realistic. And oh? Never saw that idea before? Go look through the mods section on MCF.

Wow, just looked through it, nothing to do with obsidian boats even when I searched it, also, in minecraft, there are green things that stalk you and blow up, you can build impossible floating structures, you can build a portal to a hellish dimension which is filled with lava and flying white things, you can carry tonnes of stone without feeling a thing, I don't find this too realistic

you're over thinking it mate, I meant it's realistic in the way of physics (mostly).

As for your idea:
