Item Frame 2D
by DanTheCoder
Item Frame 2D changes how item frames draw the blocks they hold, so that 3D block models appear as flat, enlarged images.
What it does
Normally an item frame shows a block such as a log or stone as a full 3D model. Item Frame 2D replaces that rendering with a flattened, enlarged version of the block, which makes the frame's contents quicker to recognize at a glance. Installation needs nothing beyond the mod itself on Fabric or NeoForge. Files target 1.21.11 only, and the mod is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source.
Key features
Flattened block rendering
Blocks held in item frames are drawn as flat images instead of full 3D block models.
Enlarged frame contents
The flattened blocks are shown larger, so the contents of a frame can be recognized from a distance.
Frame rendering only
The change affects how item frames draw their contents and leaves the blocks themselves unchanged.
Compatibility

What the author says
This mod changes the rendering system of item frames. Blocks that normally render their 3D block models in item frames (such as logs or stone) will now render a flattened and enlarged version of the block, helping you quickly recognize the frame's contents.
