Once again, it's time to pick the theme for our upcoming contest!
Read over each of the ideas carefully, making sure to understand what all of them are about before voting. Remember, vote for the one you like the best, not the one you think is going to win!
Anime
- Summon years of training and your limitless ki to create a legendary hero, a malevolent villain, or some unfortunate sap who just wants a tasty bowl of ramen. In the Anime Skin Contest, your fantasy is made reality, your destiny reveals itself, and your power comes into the light. Perhaps you'll make Ryu Kuro, the Fist of Legend, or Yoel Nazaki, the Seventh Son of Terror, or maybe Hashi Yuko, just a girl who can summon manga characters! Finish the arc, and make a skin depicting either an anime character of your own creation, or from a pre-existing series/show.
Apocalypse 2
- We find ourselves deep in the aftermath of nuclear war, coughing up disease and dangerous fumes! Radioactive gasses, polluted ground, murky waters filled with unsavory fish and grime, among other things, plague the world. What type of creatures live in these terrible environments, what type of survivors manage to eek out the day-to-day living, or what else lives out there, deep in the gaseous fog? Make a skin detailing a creature, character, or other such component of an Apocalypse-scarred world.
Storybook Medieval
- The tales we read in storybooks as children come back to life in this contest, stories of daring knights, dashing rogues, and distressed damsels filling the pages of your imagination. What story will you tell with your skin? Perhaps a magical dragon that shoots fiery balls of flame has locked a poor knight in the tower, and a swashbuckling princess must come and save him! Or, a witch finds herself enchanted by the King's... horse? Anything goes in this fairy tale! Make a skin about a character set in a fictional, fantastical medieval world, or perhaps something else that might appear in such a fable.
Western
- Howdy, partner. As you shamble into town, you see a gunslinger on the other end, his finger itchin' on the trigger. Bang! Welcome to the Western Skin Contest! Your job, bounty hunter, is to root out the most interesting, devious, dashing, daring, devilish desperado this side of the Mississippi River. This is the rough and ready West, though; anyone could be a desperado in disguise! Bang bang! Make a skin depicting a typical hero, villain, or roaming wanderer of the West, whether that be a cowboy, stablehand, coach-driver, waterboy, or something else in-between. Be seein' y'all!
Supervillains
- What would Superman be without Lex Luthor? Would Batman have ever been Batman without the Joker? The essential opposite, the terrible nemesis of a hero is the villain, of course! And a good villain only makes the hero that much better. What type of villain terrorizes your imaginary city, traps your hero in a devious device, or fights them fist to fist in glorious combat? What do they look like? What superpowers do they have? Make a skin depicting your own supervillain, and describe what they have for powers, how evil they are, or maybe who their counterpart is!
Christmas Songs
- Hear those sleigh bells a'jingling, it's Christmas time! The biggest holiday season is coming up, and with it comes songs of presents, Santa, and some strange snowman. Your goal is to make a skin that represents the musical side of Christmas. Whether it be a skin of Rudolph, a nutcracker, or a more abstract idea, we want you to create something that brings out the holiday cheer of music!
City Life
- The city's alive with the hustle and bustle of hundreds of thousands of people! From the frequenters of a trendy coffee-shop on the corner, to the diligent crew of construction workers keeping the metropolis in shape, and everything between, create someone (or something!) that calls the city its home!
Light vs Darkness
- War erupts between the forces of Good & Evil, Light & Dark. Whose side are you on? Will you fight alongside Light, aiding them in their defense of all that is good in this world? Or will you turn to the side of Darkness, becoming one of their twisted minions, aiding in their diabolical schemes?! Craft a skin that represents a soldier of one team or the other; A towering paladin clad in gold, or his bitter arch-rival, the Duke of Shadows! Use your imagination to come up with an interesting character that might find themselves in the midst of this battle!

How do I post skins on planet minecraft? I have an account, and I tried everything.

Hi! Welcome to PMC! Where the content is made up and the diamonds don't matter!
Yes, I do that for every new person who comes on here. I'm so charming, ain't I? Digressing aside, to make a skin, just click the account button where your profile is in the upper right corner, hit skins, and then there should be a button that allows you to post your own skin. Good luck! :D

Really I didn't know that. LOL, I just scroll down the skin list and at the bottom there is a button to post skin.
2
Well, we all have our methods and learn something new every day! xD
2
I hate anime, too
2
Ooooh! Light vs. Darkness won instead of Anime! Just like what I said for supervillains, I wonder if this contest will allow antiheroes too, because they kind of flip-flip between the good and bad side (I have a decent idea for my entry, and I just whipped it up as I type out this comment).
Either way, for those that are going to enter the contest, I wish you guys the best of luck! :D
(I might enter, but based on my past entries, I'm probably going to lose... :P)

As soon as I can get one of our banner artists to come up with a graphic, and I can wrangle up enough judges to start. It won't be too terribly much longer.

Ok thank you!

What an interesting turn of events (insert smirk here)
Looks like I’m not only gonna be submitting my pre-made skin, but I’m also gonna have to design a character ref to show her weapon xD

Wait....what? You probably shouldn't say that you're entering a pre-made skin...you know that's not allowed in the contests, right? o-o
3
No like I made the skin already but haven't posted it xD
2
Still not allowed. Contests only accept skins created before the actual page is put up.
3
Wait wha? Contests only accepts skins created BEFORE the actual page is put up? I'm confused since you started it with Still not allowed :/
also I haven't actually finished making the skin, I still have a ton left to do

anime? That's amazing.

I really can't decide between supervillains and anime. I love anime (and I've got a goofy idea for a skin), but at the same time, I want supervillains because I want to see what everyone brings to the table besides the Joker and such. I wonder if that counts antiheroes or villains that became heroes as well, because you obviously know what I'm going to do for that one. :3
For my vote, I'm probably going with supervillains just to see what happens. :P

I would love to see the City Life :D
Usually people can create some awesome characters with that, however I'll bet that Anime will be the final winner :'D
