How to edit skins in Minecraft – Sportskeeda

The wide world of custom Minecraft skins is only getting larger, but sometimes, players and creators need to fine-tune their skins or add a personal touch.

In addition to Minecraft Bedrock Edition’s built-in skin creator and editor, Java Edition players can edit their skins in a few different ways. It’s possible, of course, to directly edit the .png file of their skin, but doing so requires expertise with an image editing program and isn’t suitable for all users.

Fortunately, plenty of alternatives exist and have made it easier than ever to edit and upload skins.


Minecraft: Editing skin using The Skindex

The Skindex's editor is incredibly intuitive and allows for custom uploads (Image via FreeWiFi/The Skindex)

  1. Head to Minecraftskins.com to open the page for The Skindex.
  2. Select a skin from the site’s collection or head directly to the Editor tab.
  3. If players select a skin, they can choose “edit skin” on the right to open the editor.
  4. Once the editor is open, they can begin using the tools and color palette to edit their skin. If users would like to upload a skin they have on their device, they can use the “upload from computer” option.
  5. Once they are satisfied with their changes, they can select “download” to download a .png file that can be imported into the game.

Once the .png file has been downloaded, all that is required is for Java gamers to head to the game’s site, log in with their credentials, and upload the file.

For Bedrock users, it is possible to import the new skin by selecting Profile > Classic Skins > Owned > Import. However, it’s important to remember that Bedrock has a limited number of skins that can be saved.

Sadly, this method will not work on Bedrock Edition on consoles but should work correctly on Windows 10 and Pocket Edition.
