It's not stealing, actually. You can only change the skin on Singleplayer, as you probably noticed, and you only change it until you close your current game, or reset your skin.
EDIT: Wait, I just noticed. You joined 6 months ago, and this is the first post you made? :blink.gif:
You can change your skin on multiplayer also. It's lots of fun to sneek up on someone while you're wearing a herobrine skin.
You see, now that would be called hacking, and it's not cool. At least in singleplayer you can't bother anyone by changing your skin. Multiplayer is something else.
At least on the servers I play on, EVERYONE changes their skin, it's not hacking at all.
Mojang even supports skin changing, just go to the profile page and you'll see.
I know, but only if it's original. We were talking about stealing other peoples' skin here.
I was just saying that you can change your skin on multiplayer, as some people didn't seem to get it. I don't ever use a original skin on multiplayer that I myself did not make, unless the maker put it up on the internet.
Thanks for this, even though it's terribly old. I had accidentally deleted my custom made skin and was able to retrieve it with this.
Also, what's the point of the "or just" replies? The whole point of this past was to show people that you don't need anything special in order to do it. It's also interesting to know how these sites or programs do it for those of us who didn't know.

I used to maintain the Minecraft Forums Mod List. However, life has stepped in the way of that. Perhaps later...
Over a year old and still very useful. Thanks, I needed the help. Much more simple than having to go and download some weird, random software to download someone's skin and get it.
Allot of skins are available online for free any way. For unique skins i usually just get two skins overlay them and pick which parts of each I like. Sometimes I give them pointy ears or something but I am not artsy and I find it easy. I wouldn't be worried about stealing any way like I said most stuff is available on the internet
Just type: minecraft.net/skin/<player name>.png
And it will automatically download that skin!
Example: minecraft.net/skin/Notch.png Will get you Notch's skin!
Wait never mind.
I don't think you can acquire the png.

Probably because you don't know how to make skin...
or because their skins are very good???

Actually, there's a way that you can steal AND edit the skin. Follow these steps:
1- Go to minecraft.novaskin.me
2- Type in the search bar, who's skin do you want to steal? For example: (Search: DanTDM)
3- If you want to edit, do it. When you want to REALLY steal it, click the Apply button (which has a grass block next to it).
4- Enter your Username (e-mail address) and your Minecraft Password.
5-BAM! Here you go! You now have stolen a skin! Congratz!
