Why don't we do that?
so everyone should be able to download laggy, servercrushin, bad coded, sh!t lookin skins? even when i dont want see them?

Exactly! A skin-pack, JOEYZ-APPROVED would definitely work. I've seen other servers do it. Usually its no more than 3-4 or so. Players who were regulars asked the skin to be placed on the server to distinguish them from everyone else. No voice-packs. And the skins weren't horribly large. I'm sure joeyz and the gang can spot a bad / bugged / hacked skin from 50-miles.

Ultimately its up to them. So far, joeyz is still going ahead with implimenting forced original skins. Not that it affects me so much because I stopped using my custom skin ages ago and grew happy using the awesome Gen Mo'Kai skins.

Well I don't remember where I got my skins quite honestly lol. I guess skincity for the COKE skin and Filefront for the Samus skin.

Amy does have a point, guys. Off the bandwagon.

Besides, I'll need a HECK of a a lot of time making a decent job of it, and also run it by the admins if they do allow 3rd party skins on the server.

That, and the last effort went over 1gb and the Filefront staff decided to pull the file <_<
