echo "<p>If you don't know what minecraft is, google it.  There are millions of people writing, youtubing, etc on it.  So since I feel left out, here is my 2 cents worth.</p>\n";

echo "<p>First of all, I seem to like my torches/lights every 3 blocks.  So I try to make all my room dimensions multiples of 3.  Dunno why, just do.\n";
echo "<br />Secondly, I have decided that making a room 5 blocks high is the most useful, 1 for the floor (usually slabs), 3 high room, and 1 for the ceiling.\n";
echo "<br />Third, I find for decorative purposes 2 thick walls are the best.  Then my decor in each room can be unique.</p>\n";

echo "<p>Now then, here are the guidelines I build by:</p>\n";

echo "<h4>Main Hall</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_house_001.png\" width=320 height=180>\n";
  echo "</div>\n";
  echo "<p>Make it big, 8 high, 12 wide, and 18 long.  Or bigger, I mean it's supposed to be impressive right.  Balconies along both sides, bay windows, massive fireplace, grand staircase, etc.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Crafting Room</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Put your table at the center, put as many chests as you can around the outer edge of the room (3 away from your table.  Oh yeah, and 6 furnaces.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Brewery</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>To brew potions.  A couple brew stands and everything I need for brewing right at hand.  I also usually stick my water and lava sources in here.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Storage Room</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_storage_4.gif\" width=289 height=185>\n";
  echo "</div>\n";
  echo "<p>It used to be big...Now it's efficient.  etails on the system are here: <a href=\"./minecraft_storage.php\">Minecraft Storage Room</a>.</p>\n";
  echo "<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />\n";
echo "<h4>Enchantment Room</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_house_002.png\" width=320 height=180>\n";
  echo "</div>\n";
  echo "<p>With a mossy stone/obsidian floor.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Library</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Lots and lots of bookshelves.  It doesn't serve any purpose other than displaying your wealth.  On the other hand, it makes a good place for secret rooms.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Garden</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Somewhere you can toss in a couple flowers and maybe a water feature.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Water and Lava Sources</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>I try to fit one on every level.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Kitchen</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_house_000.png\" width=320 height=180>\n";
  echo "</div>\n";
  echo "<p>A chest for food, tables, furnace, fridge, mini bar, etc.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Bedroom</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>With a double bed, paintings, bookcases, wood panelling, closet...Emergency exit route.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Fireplaces</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>With netherrack as fuel, it looks classy.  Make a Zorro style secret entrance.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Subway Station</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Who wants to walk anywhere anyways?</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Obsidian Lab</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_house_004.png\" width=320 height=180>\n";
  echo "</div>\n";
  echo "<p>It's easier than hunting through caves.  I'd draw it out for you, but there are many good youtube tutorials.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Experiment Room</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Really huge open room to test redstone circuits and minecart tracks.  My best ever room was 48x32x12!!!</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Study Room</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Add some class.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Escape Routes/Secret Rooms</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Because it's fun to have secrets.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Target Range</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_house_006.png\" width=320 height=180>\n";
  echo "</div>\n";
  echo "<p>So you can actually know what 50m is.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Underground Tree Farm</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>A row for each tree type.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Underground Wheat Farm</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Automate it!</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Underground Melon/Pumpkin/Sugar Cane/Cactus Farm</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Why should you ever have to see the light of day? Or go exploring for resources??</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Indoor Fishing Pond</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_house_003.png\" width=320 height=180>\n";
  echo "</div>\n";
  echo "<p>Why not?  It occasional also spawns squid :)</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Swimming Pool</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Why should you have to swim with the fish?</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Dock</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Or at least nearby if your base isn't next to a body of water.</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Indoor Mine Entrance</h4>\n";
  echo "<p>Why risk death after gathering all those pretties??</p>\n";
echo "<h4>Lounge</h4>\n";
  echo "<div class=\"rightpic\">\n";
    echo "<img src=\"./images/minecraft/mc_house_005.png\" width=320 height=180>\n";
