After Dinnerbone tweeted out a seemingly innocent image.

Users of Reddit managed to pull the image below from the page.
FiredPlayer from Reddit said:
It's not meaningless.

The picture posted is 2×204960. Dinnerbone split an 854×480 pixel image (usual dimension for screenshots) into 2 pixel wide strips, and put these strips vertically, creating a 2×204960 image. Some code converts it back into the original image, linked above.

The (very crappy) PHP code I used can be found here.

Updated the thread with 1.8.5 information. Mojang are recommending that you update since 1.8.5 fixes some security issues with the game.

  • Made endermen creepy again.
  • Vwooop.
  • More optimisations! Many optimisations!
