In case you haven't seen it featured on MinecraftForums or the Minecraft Wiki, I'm here to inform you of a huge community-based MC project that's going on, one that really deserves your attention. It's called You Are Minecraft. It was developed as a way for the MC community to say thank you to Mojang, and to demonstrate just how many people really love MC. YAM takes the form of a huge server. When you log on, you put in a command that teleports you to an oversized Steve statue. There's a sign in front of that statue that indicates that you're now the owner of that statue. The premise is that you use pixel art to create your skin using the statue as a base. The server becomes a huge representation of the MC community and shows, as a group, our thanks to Mojang for creating such a great game!
And I'm not kidding when I say the server is huge...there are currently almost 30,000 skin statues made, and that number is continuing to rise. The amount of creativity put in to these skins is enormous, and you could spend hours flying through the world and looking at skins.
Another awesome feature of YAM is that they've reserved special, extra-huge statues for Jeb, Notch, Ez (Notch's wife) and other important people of Mojang and Bukkit. Ez has already completed her skin, and I actually saw her on the server earlier today!
Sounds totally awesome, right? It is! I've created my skin, and I highly suggest others should have a go at it too! All you need to do go to the server server.youareminecraft.com. Once you're there, just turn around to see the rules and server commands. Be sure to check out their website, as well, for additional info.
I've put together a little photo gallery to give you a preview of the server:
Here is shot of some of the awesome skins that people have built
Here is my own skin statue. Type /home uebernerd to check it out, and I left a present for anyone who stops by!
Ez's complete and Notch's blank huge statues (be sure to check inside Ez's skin for the cutest surprise ever!)
