Disclaimer: I will not make skins for you. You have to put in the effort yourself. After all, all good creations can only be made with a lot of work.

 

For this tutorial, I will be using Ironstan's   to show you how to change the skins. It's a lengthy process and will take some effort, but the results will be well worth it.

 

1. Open the rig's folder, copy and paste steve.png, and steve rig.png (also fingers.png if you want fingers.) While you are there, create a folder for your skin. You will need this later.

2. Open any photo editing software that allows transparency. For this tutorial, I will be using Paint.net as reference.

 

3. Open your skin; Hallow out your skin's eyes and mouth area. (As shown in the picture.) Optional: Open fingers.png and color the fingers to match your skin.

4. Save the images as the same name. (steve.png and fingers.png)

5. Open steve rig.png. Color the parts to match your skin. (Shown in picture)

6. Save as the same name and quit. Drag the newly created files in your rig folder.

7. Open Mine-imator and Load the rig. If there are missing files, change the files to your newly created ones. If you do not get a prompt of any missing files, simply change the skin of the rig with the files as your new ones.

 

And you're done!

If I helped you out, please give me a little bit of green, nothing much. Just takes a click.

I'll see what I can do about your rig, I have to take a look at it first.

No problem man, and thanks. I choose yours since yours seemed to be the most complex. The two lines was in the skin itself, though I noticed the hands where bugging a little bit with that line there. Nevertheless, I'll keep that in mind.

Did you even read what i said??? I said "I am because i can not send any messages to you."

Keep your profile issues out of this topic please. This topic shouldn't be a placeholder for that kind of stuff.

One little problem (I know you probably said how to fix it but) when I load my rig skin it doesn't show the detailed parts. What the heck is going on? All it shows is the skin with no mouth and no eyes.

Oh nevermind. I found out why now.
