I also wanted to take this (rare) opportunity to say, I miss you, PMCer's. Back in October when we made this announcement, we thought after a few weeks, maybe at most a month, I would have a little more time and be in a groove with our small human and return to writing the Weekly's and be involved in this wonderful community once again. Turns out, she runs the show and requires basically every second of my time. She's lucky she's cute. 😛 I don't know when I'll start having time to write the newsletter again, but just know that it's always on my mind as are you 💙 Hope you are all doing great and are happy and healthy! Keep creating, playing, and being you!

Love,
Mrs. PMC

Who's familiar with Advent Calendars? They're quite fun if you ask us, and a great way to kick off and celebrate the month of December! Did you know they date back to 19th century in Germany? The first one was made in 1851!

Advent calendars are a special calendar used to count the days until Christmas. Some are 24 days, some are longer, counting down the days until the New Year. The point is, every day of December you get a treat. Modern days you can find Advent Calendars of various themes ranging from different chocolates to different toys.

We're telling you this because now, you can have your very own in Minecraft! Every day of December, you can get yourself some free items using the Advent Calendar data pack Bertiecrafter made here! Higher tiered treats are included around Christmas and New Year's Eve. How cool!



Share your experiences, the items you received and hoped to get on the Discussion thread!

Who's ready for and EPIC FIREWORKS show?!

Show starts at approximately 4PM (about 15 minutes from now)! We will wait a few minutes to give everyone a chance to join in. Afterwards, we will gather for a group photo so be sure to stick around!

What fun we're having on the server!!

The information for the Hypixel meet up has been posted! Remember, there will be just 1 group in the first hour; in the following hours there will be 2 groups for optimal participation!

We also launched the Papercraft Photography Competition. It will run for the entire month! We added some accessories to Paper Craft so you can decorate and create really cool scenes. We encourage you to use them!

In addition, we've added a GROUP PHOTO to our schedule, to be held after the fireworks at 4PM EST! We hope everyone is having just as much fun as we are! See you later!

A couple of quick notes:

Hey hey, Planet Minecrafter's! Here to remind you that THIS SUNDAY, November 8th, we're having a DAY long CELEBRATION, packed FULL with events!

Solve a puzzle using a new quest system, enter a raffle to win a super cool prize, meet on HYPIXEL to play some minigames together and more! OH, and we're opening a special PMC Museum server that includes a Hall of Fame, Community Content and some other cool things you'll have to see with your own eyes.

SPREAD THE WORD! Share this post! Let us know what you're looking forward to the most! We can't WAIT and hope you all are equally excited! WOO!

IMPORTANT TO NOTE: IF AT ANY TIME if you skip ahead/behind in the movie, you will no longer be watching "with" everyone. You will be viewing it by yourself. If you happen to skip ahead/behind, Click the "Watch" button located above the chatbox. This will bring you back to Live-view mode, and you'll be watching with everyone again. Yay!

Happy Wednesday, PMCers! We're already ONE WEEK into October!! Are we all feeling spoopy yet?! Updoot this post if you are!


OC-Tober is very similar to Skintober but instead of making a skin every day, you make a skin every 4 days!

Be sure to take a peek at the Community Event Calendar to check out all of the October Events and Contests, including several Skintober prompts! Also be sure to check out our Official Spooktober Community Event! Did you know you can enter up to 5 times?! Details here!

P.S. 24 Days until Halloween! Doot doot!

Happy ALMOST Spooptober, everyone!
There are a lot of "tober" prompt lists, and we didn't want anyone to miss the first day themes! So, we've included Day 1 themes with links to each corresponding tober event. Whether you skin, draw, build or write, there's a tober prompt for each! Let's spread the tober cheer!



What is Skintober?
Skintober is an event in October that Fawne came up with in 2017 to help improve their skin making. Participants are tasked with creating a Halloween themed skin each day corresponding to a calendar, similar to Inktober! Since then, members from around the site have created their own Skintober prompt lists, and remains a tradition in the skinning community.

There have been several spin off's of Skintober including Storytober and Drawtober. They're also included in this list!

We added a PMCSkin3D Lite Edition today for users that only want or need the basic tools while making skins.

As skin creators become more comfortable or seek to push their craft, they can move to the Advanced Edition which is the full featured editor.

We hope this helps introduce even more artists to skin making and our PMCSkin3D editor.

Since launching PMCSkin3D, our skin editor has supported the creation of HD skins...

Today, you can publish HD PLAYER skins to the PMC skins section!
While they are listed alongside standard definition skins, they are easily identifiable and filtered using the "Format" filter. We support 128x128 resolution because it's officially supported by the Bedrock Edition.

Besides the higher resolution, it's easy to identify HD skins by their isometric preview and label "HD Bedrock Minecraft Skin". HD skins can only be downloaded. We are unable to support remote change or papercraft.

Game Version Support
HD skins are officially supported by the Minecraft Bedrock Edition and unofficially supported in Minecraft Java Edition with the use of Optifine the MorePlayerModels mod.

Note: If you've already published your HD player skins in a blog, you can republish them without taking down your blog. It's up to you.
