Seeing as the server is very laggy for me at the moment I decided to jump off and fool around with the MC Skin Editor tool, which can be found
here if you would like to try it out for yourself. One lame idea and 10 minutes later, this is what I came up with.
I plan to try doing more of these since its quite fun to see what you can make with this nifty tool. Post your own custom made skins in here if you like and comment on what does and doesn't work.
