Items.png



items.png was an image file found inside minecraft.jar that was used to load the game's item textures.

Format
items.png is a fixed-width 256×256-pixel file that is split into different 16×16 squares which correspond to the texture of each item found in-game. Like with particles.png, unused sections of the texture are completely transparent, unlike with terrain.png and the paintings sheet where such regions are colored magenta.
