Double vote on the tower, preferably with a surrounding cacti fence. I've just started both a cacti farm and the beginning of a straight-through tower (From bedrock to cloud bank), so seeing someone else go about it might be instructive :P

A tower that goes up to cloud level. Clouds are 3d and will actually go through your tower causing it to become foggy. (or so I've heard)
You heard right.
Also, this.

Wish I had a daylight shot of it, but it looks so much better at night. The inside has floors at every level, with a spiral staircase going up to the smallest one. Once there, you can take ladders to the (now) obsidian spire at the top. No cheats involved, but since it's on an SMP server (private), there are no water features or minecart coolness.

I approve of your votes; days have been played through. It'll have to wait until tommorow, though, because I really have no time left today. Triple update tomorrow! ...and another one on Monday. I'll be going on a vacation tomorrow, without the computer. So that means only one update this week. Oh well; let's just say that this week's update is satisfying in more than one way. I'd say it's probably the best update yet. Look forward to it.

Does the tower have minecart tracks on it? use a booster to push it up, and have one on either side, then you can shoot up, take a screenie, and post it.

I was attempting to build a Floating Castle in the clouds once. So many falling off due to the clouds coming over the area and I couldn't see...

Then I realized that Grass wouldn't grow at that height. Kinda spoiled it for me...

I don't think it has to do with the height, only that there wasn't any grass already in the area. See this for tips on growing grass: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Grass

How many times do I have to say I have no iron? Besides, imagine the gigantic ramp I'd need.

...Now that I think about it, it sounds tempting.

Alright, fine. I'm blaming you if I don't find anything, though :V
