body: Since 1.14, Minecraft has replaced all there texture files with new textures. They still offer the old ones as "Programmer art." I am making my own block sandbox game, and I need textures. However, since the old Minecraft textures are no longer officially in use, how legal is it to use them in my own game, if I cite Mojang? Or should I hit the pixel editor and make my own?
  
  
  Would it be any less legal to use:

  as opposed to:
  
  
  [![Old diamond block](https://i.stack.imgur.com/pWbdm.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/pWbdm.png)
  
  
  since the second one is no longer officially in use? What if I edit them slightly? My question is not black and white. As explained, there are other factors.
