Loading new skins for characters and objects of the surrounding world is a popular hobby for players in Minecraft. To create your own skins, you can use the special MC Skin Editor utility, available for installation from the game kit or downloaded from the network. Also ready-made sets of "skins" in.

New skins are often installed by Counter Strike players as well. The textures for this game have the mdl extension.

You can change skins in Windows operating system. To do this, go to the control panel and select "Display".

Some MS Windows applications also support changing skins, for example Media Player, Winamp, ICQ, etc. Changing the design in them is done by going to the corresponding tab in the main menu. Here you can choose one of the preinstalled skins or specify the path to the downloaded content on your hard drive. In addition, the function of changing skins is also available on mobile phones based on the Symbian platform, and it is performed by replacing standard textures in the swf format with new files in the corresponding folders in the device's memory.
