I like both of your skin submissions. RPG style skins are super-cool design wise most times and they have a style that I think fits the gameplay of it really well. If I may give one tip it would be to pay closer attention to inner parts with the shading of your skins. Like on the inner leg of the Sylvia skin where on the outside there's shading but on the inside it's just the base color all-over. :)
It's great that you tried making an HD skin for the first time. I really like the cheeky expression of the pumpkin on the shirt. ๐ As for the dream skin, that's alright, just be sure to only post things that you made by yourself from there on. ๐
Not wanting to be Steve. When I first started playing Minecraft, Alex wasn't a thing quite yet. And I didn't want to be a dude in the game. ๐ From there it was just the fun of it that kept me making them. ๐
Might be an odd pick, I think you've made things that are technically better. But What I like about it is that it is such an original and colorful design. Has character! And I learned what a Sarong is today. ๐
As for a compliment: I really like your froggy profile decor. Frogs are adorable!
Added! The Events section of the forum is the better place to post a contest. That's where members will come to find them :) A blog is not the best place.
It explains that too. You use the Events section of the forums and make a thread there. It is not any kind of system, just something you shape up entirely by yourself using a forum thread.
