In this our third installment of Tool Time, I'll be reviewing the minecraft skin creation tool, MCSkinEdit.

MC, for many, is a trusted name in the minecraft community. Makers of powerful and reliable server software, such as MC#, MCZall, and the illustrious MCLawl. MCSkinEdit by name alone speaks for it's outstanding quality.

So what is MCSE? MCSE is a powerful skin creation tool, that delivers the power of Photoshop and Gimp, with the simplicity of MSpaint.

Immediately upon opening the program (opening it's file with java), you are greeted with a simple interface and skin previewer.


Skin creation is very easy using this tool as all the areas for "coloring" are marked out clearly, so you always know what part of the skin you're painting. This alone combined with the previewer, which updates itself automatically as you draw, makes MCSE par NONE.

But it isn't over yet!

MCSE allows you to create overlay images, such as hats and hair, on your skins that programs like MSpaint cannot do. Gimp and Photobucket can make these true, but they cannot create them with the ease and speed of MCSkinEdit.



I rate this tool as a perfect 5. This program is perfect, it does it's job without the slightest problem, and is so easy to operate, your grandparents can do it! Yes, it really is THAT easy =D.

Oh aye! I originally got it because I needed to make overlay pixels for hair, and I didn't know how to in paint. So I searched around and found this =D

[Supertoastfairy]

It won't let me see the preview of the skin because it says I'm missing a 'skintest2.jar' what is that and why didn't it come with the download and how do I get it?
