The Skindex
The Skindex is a free community platform for Minecraft fans to find and share custom skins, with a skin editor that runs in a browser. The editor offers controls for a skin's body and overlays, while the site's Wardrobe helps users keep track of skins and return to saved ones. Skins can be downloaded from their own pages, and an account is not required for downloads. Community tools let users like or dislike content, comment, follow others, and block users or their content. The site explains how to upload downloaded skins to Minecraft on PC and Pocket Edition on mobile. It describes Classic skins as using 4px arms and Slim skins as using 3px arms, and supports Bedrock Edition skins. Blank skins cannot be downloaded or uploaded through the editor. Accounts are restricted by age: users must be at least 13, or 16 in the EU/EEA or UK. The Skindex says it is not an official Minecraft product and has no affiliation with Mojang Studios.
