Re-texture TNT

As far as I know, the TNT block is the only block that contains text in its texture (besides 'technically' the Enchanting Table, and Signposts).

Not to mention that the 'N' looks really weird in that blocky font.

Besides, if the text is removed from the block, it could be referred to (more easily) as 'Dynamite', or 'Explosives'.

And it would have far more utility as a decorative block (without text splashed all over it).

Every player of Minecraft knows what TNT looks like, we don't need to have the name of the block, written on the side of the block. In fact, NO block should have its own name written on its texture!

To illustrate my point, I've created these before and after graphics of what the new texture could look like (you can't tell me it wouldn't be easier to decorate with the new texture!):

    Although i get your point, i think the TNT on the side is also a little astethic (no idea how you spell that sorry). And it is also a indication of power (explosions are calculated with TNT(IRL)).

    i personally think that tnt stands more kid friendly as well as that thought is sort of engraved in our minds as the classic cartoons called explosives as 'tnt'. so ye, in my personal opinion tnt sounds more kid friendly than explosives... but i guess dynamite isnt bad either

    Your TNT without text looks weird. Just use a resource pack. i'm very against this idea.
