Let me mod that for you: Lanterns!

Here is the original request.

This mod adds a new "Lantern" block for 1.8 that turns on at night and off during the day.
Here are the download links

Do the usual drag+drop files from the "Lanterns_mod.zip" file into your "minecraft.jar" (delete the "META-INF" folder).
You need to put the "Lanterns_texturepack.zip" file in your texture pack folder, and select it through minecraft.

Lanterns are crafted like this:

Place and destroy as you would a normal block.

Enjoy! Feedback is appreciated :)
