Skin URL
SkinsRestorer allows you to use a custom skin by using a URL. This way you can use a skin not from another player, but from a URL.
Confirm a valid skin
Make sure the URL points to only the valid skin PNG file.
If you are using imgur, make sure that the url ends with .png
.
A valid skin url should look like this: https://i.imgur.com/QuoWt6B.png
You can see the image below as reference:
Uploading to imgur
This time we are going to upload your custom skin format to imgur. Follow the following steps:
Download the file
You need to get a skin file in .png
format. You can use the skin you created or downloaded from the internet.
We have a skin design guide if you need help with that.
Go to https://imgur.com/upload
Upload the file to imgur (see image below)
Getting the url
The Skin URL must end with .png
, so make sure that you have the right url!
Below you can see the skin I just uploaded to imgur, now right-click on the image and hit “Copy image url”
It should copy an url like https://i.imgur.com/abcdefgh.png
That’s it! you can now set the skin by using your imgur url!
