Unoriginal Skins



I have been with PMC for about a month and a half now and ever since I joined I've been interested in skinning. I've made 9 or so skins now and I really enjoy making them but I've noticed that many people aren't in it for the fun or the art. These people are in it for fame, leveling and diamonds. You may be asking yourself " Who is he talking about" well I am talking about the people who make the same submissions as almost everyone else and getting away with it.

Some of these skins I'm talking about are the 'Teen' skins(Link to a rant against 'Teen' skins specifically www.planetminecraft.com/blog/teen-skin-rage/) and the mobs or characters wearing hoodies or headphones with probably a creeper face on the hoodie, also the girls who all look the same with maybe a slightly different hair color or dress, as mentioned in the comments below there are also skins which are plain black with neon colors and highlights, and worst of all I've seen is the Steve with a different hair color or eye color skins.

What we should do:



We should start flagging these skins as unoriginal or reporting them to the staff. The staff should also start cracking down on the unoriginal skins more such as the ones named above. Maybe even some stricter rules could be added.

Please show your support against those who make these unoriginal skins in the comments.

Just for fun:

I completely agree.
It's so annoying that whenever I'm looking at skins (anywhere in general) I always see remixed Steve's and such. It's gotten so far that even on my favorite SERVER many people go "ZOMG check out mah epics skin :D" and all I see is a blatant and unoriginal copy of a skin (i.e. creepers or other mobs)
So glad that the flag option is available :) let us all use it! :D

Its true, most of the people I see use teen skins, very few don't. I remember a person making a video showing 5 bad skins, and in the comments I saw 'You dont understand fashion.' But most people with teen skins are aged 6-16'ish, and they are immature. I've seen too many clones and biebers, and I'm fed up with it.

All the same girl, just different hue style or a hair bang on the other side. The boys look like mini-Biebers. Did imagination and originality left some people on earth?

i agree with the "same submissions" thing, that people are just changing made skins and uploading it as their own...but i disagree with the "making skins for level"..to be honest I also make skins for the level because for me, it's very fascinating when you level up. Also when you have subscribers, you know they appreciate your work. I'm not like you who makes skins for FUN. I make skins so I can share to the PMC world.
