Besides the new textures, in 1.8, if you create the fence recipe, it rewards you with 3 fences instead of the 2 fences. The crafting table to create a fence has been changed for this to happen. The new fences (and fence gates) textures for all wooden planks are the same as their wood planks. Since there are multiple fences and gates, you can add multiple sorts of fences connected to each other to make an unique fencing.

There are many new concepts and ideas added to the table on what creative uses players can make out of the up to date wood items. From window shutters to scarecrows, there are many great uses for these wood items. Happy hunting!
