Minecraft Skin from Website-to-Xbox?

TyleRebel · Aug 13, 2019

There's a specific website called Planet Minecraft that offers a service of downloading skins to Minecraft players.

With the connection between Xbox One Console with Windows 10 (and other devices) in MINECRAFT (non-console version), is there a way to download between the site and Console? I really want a skin but have no idea how to get this across with the bot chat
or volunteer gamer.

Hello TyleRebel,

We thank you for bringing this inquiry to our forums community, and understand that this concerns Minecraft skins.

Considering these skins would not be coming directly from the Microsoft store, it would be best to reach out to Mojang through either their
Mojang help site or
official Twitter to ensure compatibility of the skins coming from Planet Minecraft.

Try this out for us and then let us know the results.

Best wishes!

Good evening

Yes, you can use your custom skin on your Xbox One. Here are the steps you can follow:

Upload the skin to the internet: You need to upload your custom skin to a website or a hosting service that can host your skin image online. There are several free websites that can do this for you, such as NovaSkin, MinecraftSkins, or MinecraftSkinShare.

Download the skin to your Xbox: Once your skin is uploaded, you need to download it to your Xbox One. Here's how:

Launch Minecraft on your Xbox One.

Go to the "Help & Options" menu and select "Change Skin".

Choose "Browse Skins".

Enter the URL of the skin you uploaded to the internet in the "Enter a valid URL" field.

Click "Confirm" to download and apply the skin.

Alternatively, you can also transfer the skin to your Xbox using a USB flash drive. Here's how:

Save the skin image to a USB flash drive.

Plug the USB flash drive into an available USB port on your Xbox One.

Launch Minecraft on your Xbox One.

Go to the "Help & Options" menu and select "Change Skin".

Choose "Browse Skins".

Select "Custom" and choose the skin image from your USB flash drive.

Click "Confirm" to apply the skin.

Hi thanks for your help but I have triple-checked the account and it is owned on Xbox but on the Microsoft website it doesn't show that I own it, but shows some purchases for/inside the game for mine coins and skin packs but not the game. The only Minecraft purchase that is not any DLC/skin/texture packs is the Xbox One edition of Minecraft.

Hey IronTango

Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums.

In regards to
using a custom skin in Minecraft Windows 10, you don't need anything like USBs, every Minecraft skin website that lets you create or choose a skin should have the option to
Download or Save your skin. When prompted to save the file, select
Save.

By default, the file is saved to your Downloads folder. Make sure that the file name has a
.png extension.

To upload your skin to Minecraft and start using it:

Launch Minecraft and select Skins from the main menu.
Select Browse skin.
Navigate to the Downloads folder or to the folder where you saved the .png file and select the new skin.

The next time you load your game or create a new one, your character will be wearing the new skin that you created.

I hope this was of some help to you.
