Minecraft Cartograph
Minecraft Cartograph is a program which lets you render your entire Minecraft world into an image. I use this when I start a new file because it's very helpful to find a place to start creating a working area. It generates a map of everything rendered in the save point. Some of the generated images:

I prefer the isometric rendering (as seen in the bottom one). I didn't make this program, it was made by Zombuster of the MineCraftForum network.

Just something for those who need to know.

The weird pattern in the top of the map. (Where it has like a line drawn through it) Is actually how the map looks like, and is not the mapper messing up.
