Skin Contest Themes: "Underground Creatures Skin, Life on the High Seas Skin, Santa's Workshop Skin, Sci-Fi & Outer Space Skin, Twisted Reality Skin Contest"
1. Create a Skin with one of the Themes listed.
Just be sure it fits the theme and add a description of who/what the skin is and how it relates to the Themes.
Please try to remember to be creative with your submissions, we take creativity as well as technique into account when scoring the finalists. So if you make something common and well known you may end up with a lower score compared to someone who made a much lesser known character or made up the idea for their skin.
2. Skins must be new and made for this contest.
We do not and have never accepted any copies or re-posts in our contests, nor do we accept skins created before the contest's announcement date.
Do not submit copies, or paint-overs, of default textures from the minecraft.jar - This means no Steve skins, zombie skins, pigman skins, Creeper skins, or Enderman skins are permitted!
Do not submit copies, or paint-overs, of skins found in any existing texture packs or mods, even if you are the original author.
Do not submit existing member submissions, from this site or others. This includes your own galleries.
Give us something new and fresh, please!
3. Skins must be valid, use-able character skins.
This is a contest for player skins only.
Please do not submit mob skins, villager skins, or anything but the format expected for the player model. Note that skins with transparent portions have not worked in-game since minecraft Alpha, so make sure that your skins are COMPLETELY filled out. No skins with transparent portions will be accepted.
Do not use the light blue skin preview background color to fake large areas of transparency. These are not considered valid skins.
4. Submit something you made, entirely by yourself.
Skins that are obvious remixes, recolors, or blatant copies of other people's work are not acceptable. Your entry will be deleted, and you will be disqualified from the contest if you are found to be submitting stolen work.
Using skin-making tools or apps such is not the same as making a skin yourself. Keep in mind also that, when using those applications, you are copying from a library of 'parts'. Several of those 'parts' were taken from talented skinners without their consent, and as such, skins containing those parts are considered stolen art. Those entries will be disqualified, and deleted from your account.
Our global ban list of apps and websites on includes, but is not limited to:
MinersNeedCoolShoes Armory
SkinCraft Skin Creator
NovaSkin Skin Creator
Skins Pro Creator (iPod)
Skins created with any of these services will be disqualified with no option for appeal. Continue reading for a list of suggested skinning programs to use.
5. One entry per person.
Each user will only be permitted to submit one skin for this contest.
You may edit your entry for as long as the contest submission period is open. If you decide to change your submission at any point, you are free to do so.
6. The contest will run for two weeks.
Post dates must be made after today's date, May 16th. The contest will end about two weeks from today, on the 30th. Skins submitted after this date will not be accepted.
7. Take your time, and make it fun!
Give your skin some character! Give them some defining characteristics. Make it unique and awesome!
We've always scored higher for submissions that include more thought and creativity. Write a bit about the history behind your character and we'll all learn more. Remember, you have two weeks to do this. You don't have to put something up right away. Take your time!
If you're unsure if your idea will fit with the theme or have any other concerns feel free to contact our list of judges below they should be able to help you.
Do not rush yourself to get something in immediately. It will not help your chances at winning if you submit anything less than fantastic, so take your time.
Should you chose to rush, remember that you are able to update your submission as many times as you want before the final close date of May 30th, 2014
