Personalized Site Feed

Skin artists can now choose whether to disable downloads on per skin basis. Why? Because some artists want to share their personal skins, some want to share commissions, and some just want credit and more control over how their work gets used elsewhere.

When you upload or edit a skin (or mob skin), you'll find a new "Allow public downloads" toggle. Turn it off and:

• The download button disappears from the page
• The direct download link is blocked, even if someone has it bookmarked
• Your skin still shows up fully in listings, your profile, and search. It's just view-only

This is opt-in and only affects new uploads or skins you edit. Nothing changes for your existing downloadable content unless you flip the switch yourself.

Artists please note that this feature discourages casual downloads but cannot guarentee complete protection of your work. Hoping to see some high quality inspirational skins that would otherwise never see the light of PMC!

Hello everyone! I've been chipping away at making this Minecraft Skin Commission Guide! It's available on multiple platforms c:

Planet Minecraft
r/minecraftskins Wiki
Google Docs

I am also looking for feedback on tutorials and guides! As well as sharing some on my brand new Discord server. Suggestions for new content welcome as well. I encourage to direct everything to my Google Form since I don't check PMC as much

In 2022 I had a bad idea, a very bad idea and this idea resulted in 8 months of labour in doing a collab skin with Allergy_Man

All we had to do was follow 4 simple rules

1. You may only place 1 pixel at a time - then send it to the other

2. You may never change a previously placed pixel -
whatever we add to the skin must be kept until the final version

3. You are not allowed to use the colour picker or use a colour previously put onto the skin
-we validated this by using a colour counter, which by this requirement must be the same as the file count.

4. You are not allowed to communicate at all about why a pixel was put where it was put
-ie. if you have a design in mind you better hope the other catches on.

Please check out our longest collab in progress:

I made a subreddit, r/MinecraftSkinMarket. It's a Minecraft skin sub that focuses on giving skin artists a space to find work, and a lot more!

It's still super much a WIP. But if you make Minecraft skins, need one (yes even for free), or even want to hire an artist, please consider stopping by! Inspired by the work model used on a lot of commission themed subs, and the r/MinecraftSkins sub (But artist first!).

Hope to see you there! :wave:

Jam! Jam! Design an NPC skin for the Fall Festival event. 😁
