Don't forget it is stupidly common in swamp biomes, and in shallow water, so it shouldn't be too hard to obtain!
Aye that's where I've been getting it but Fortune doesn't work on clay so you're limited to 4 balls for each piece, so 1 clay block = 1 brick block = needing insane amounts of the stuff to build anything bigger than a tiny hut.

Using mouse with laptop seems to be going ok,
Currently have a storage unit built on the top of a mountain, which im removing layer by layer.
Have a 200x200 floor span castle under construction as well. Floating way above my storage unit.
Slowly building it up but i need 40,000 cobblestone for the floor alone...
Will build my storage rooms in it and have a roof top farm and trees. Oh and the 4 line railway will run out of it as well.

Ed, I'm just wondering why you've named your new house "penis" :

Because of the penis lake http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq133/Eddhadley...minecraftpenis.png
I've filled some of it in now though, Rik if you need any more lapis then there is tonnes of it in my 'metals' chest in the abbey (around 10 stacks IIRC)

Not on the PH server, have a private one with a mate. Only 2 of us know the code for it so no worries about people destroying it.

ATJ/Rik/Rob please treat others with respect in future. Accidents happen and shouting at someone who had donated $20 to you a few days earlier is NOT how you should behave.
Everyone else, please beware of creepers near the igloo at the spawn area.
I suggest you look closer to home re your comments on "respect" before dishing it out. If you had some respect for other people's stuff then you wouldn't have found yourself being shouted at. And to blame me for your stupidity was just the icing on the cake. Any normal person would have started off by apologising but I guess that was to much to ask. How about you spend 2 hours making ice moulds and then I lead a load of creepers to it and raze it to the ground and let's see what happy response you make eh?Everyone else, please beware of creepers near the igloo at the spawn area.
The fact that you have donated to the cost of running the server makes absolutely no difference, however if is going to be an issue for you then it can be refunded back to your account just as quickly as it was donated.

If you had not thrown your toys out the pram within a few seconds of the accident happening, then I would have fixed everything. I left the server because I will not be talked to like that. End of discussion.
If you hadn't blamed me for your stupidity then you wouldn't have got the response you did. That was what pissed me off. It's fixed now and has a fence round it at some distance so let's move on. 
Right guys, I need some basic guidance on Minecraft mods please! You lot seem fairly advanced and like you might know!
Situation:
- I've played a couple of earlier versions before with no mods, and have a fairly nice game where i've built an awesome glass tower (as well as collecting quite a few resources) that i'd like to keep!
- I bought and downloaded the latest version of MC today (1.2.5)
- I've got the Technic Pack launcher and want to play with some mods now, ideally where i can build some more advanced machines. (and singleplayer only - not fussed about mutiplayer right now)
Questions:
1) I can see that the Technic Pack contains several packs of mods (Technic, Tekkit, Yogbox etc) but I can't find anywhere a guide on the key differences between them and why you'd choose one over another. Can anyone spell out the differences before i invest a load of time in one of them?
2) I imported the old save game mentioned above and launched it with the Technic Pack (with the Technic mods.) All works fine. However, there are new resources like Copper and Uranium in the mod pack, but the big question is whether these are seeded in the world when i imported the save? Or do i need to start afresh with a new game to be able to find these?

You want the technic pack.
You can't use your old map.
You can steal any buildings from your old map and put them in a newly generated world using MCEdit or similar (No I don't know how to do it!)
Old maps wont have any of the mod items that are made by world generation, ores, rubber trees and many other things will be missing for you if you try.
Hit up Direwolf20s videos on youtube for tutorials for industrialcraft and buildcraft tutorials also redpower2 (all in the technicpack, direolf doesn't play technic pack though so not all applicable)

Are you sure about that? Imho it should work just fine, BUT only in previously unexplored areas (aka unloaded chunks). The mod stuff won't "spawn" in areas already explored/walked on/flown over/caved through, but should be fine in new areas. I had this when I installed Buildcraft and EquivalentExchange - to get any oil I had to go and explore areas I'd never been to before.You can't use your old map.

Depending on how old the world is there may be an issue with the sea level as it was raised up a block on one of the later Beta versions if I recall correctly. You will get a 'lip' in the sea where this has happened - on the edge of last loaded chunk - but it's not game breaking.
