(Hey this is my first blog, so uh- tell me what you think, guys!)

Alright. Right down to the main point. Creeper Hoodies. Don't act like you haven't seen one, I know that almost everyone on this entire website has seen a Creeper Hoodie unless they are like, isolated in single player. I've disliked Creeper Hoodies to the extent where I will make fun of them with my skins (As you may see with one or two of mine I've uploaded.) I just don't understand the idea that a Creeper Hoodies add this great value to a skin. Correct me if I'm wrong- but I honestly wouldn't want to wear a Creeper's face on the back of my skin. Sure, it's cool and may prove you're a Minecraft-ian, but is it really original?

I mean sure, there are people who don't make there own skins- who just come on PMC and look up 'orange creeper hoodie' or whatnot. But I mean, my number one pet peeve is when I look at the popular skins and see this traditional Steve skin wearing a creeper hoodie. I mean, I guess that makes you more of a Minecraft-ian than if you come on a server wearing, say, a Killzone skin, but I mean come on. Atleast maybe put some effort into it? Noise or texture into the cloth- Something to incorporate the fact that your skin looks even slightly decent. I mean, I try and be unique- original. I've posted one of my skins (not trying to advertise, don't take it like that) that has an Iron Golem's face on the back. It has a nice design, I think, but it still just isn't as popular as some of those creeper hoodies. I mean sure, maybe I'm not the best skin designer, but atleast it was original. Now I mean, sure; sometimes I see a skin that looks pretty cool! Like maybe an awesome cyborg design or whatever- and the designer incorporates a creeper hoodie. If the designer or skinner put some decent thought into the hoodie, and didn't just slap it on for a few insta-downloads, I would probably go and diamond it if I really could tell the skinner really tried. But I mean- whenever I get on a minigame, say some PvP minigame, and I see a steve skin with a creeper hoodie with no texture, design, even noise, I feel the need to betray them completely. Not saying it's because of my bloodlust, but because not only did this person maybe download this skin from off PMC to try and be cool- but he chose this one of all the skins possible. Then there are times I see maybe a creeper hoodie with, say, an enderman head. That just annoys me to pieces. And those times a person decides to be a complete genius and put a creeper head on it? That just ticks me off. (Pun intended.)

Now I don't mean to insult anyone who makes a living off creeper hoodie skins or what-not, but I mean if you do then please put some thought into the hoodie. Don't just fill the template with some random color and slap a creeper face on it. Maybe take some time to make it look realistic. Add shading and lightening to it. Make it look good! I mean I do occasionally see a nice skin, with a boss hoodie that has one or two aspects that make it completely original. That just fills me with internal happiness. Not exactly, but you have to realize where I'm coming from. Does anyone agree? I honestly can't be the only one that's annoyed to no end when I finish publishing a skin and realize that two weeks later- a creeper hoodie skin was made and got around a hundred downloads in it's first 24 hours.

Yeah... If you are going to make a skin with a creeper involved, just make yourself a creeper man or something like that! That's what I did!
