The first and second skins have the top of the mane cropped. The second problem is that the brown color is too dark / opaque. It's not so critical with the second skin variant that have a lot additional details, but the first one really requires some highlights. Right now the most part of it is filled with almost uniform color.

The fire / golden one won't be accepted. Outline would be appropriate for a cartoon style skin but not here, and the design itself is too simplistic.

P.S. You can try online and portable graphic editors if you can't install software on your computer.

Is it a problem if the mane is cropped ? If so I can allways change it ^^
I finaly used some of the parts I made before, and did the reste again, but with a little trancparence. Is it still too dark ?

For the first one:

And for private use:

 

I also made one more, but maybe it's too simple and dark(opaque) ?

These are acceptable in tems of details. I would advise to add more contrast to them to make them look more expressive, but technically they will work with current level contrast too. Although unlike the first variant they have another tech problem. Please check your skins on the dark backround. They all have a non-transparent white smudged areas at the outline.

Concerning the mane, "cropped" means hard crop by the canvas top border, not the haircut :)

The last skin really is too dark. The other two problems are smudged outline and blurring over the whole skin. I'm not sure if it's too simple or not because the texture is almost not visible due to the low contrast.

These three have no tech problems :) The second and third are very similar, please choose one of them when submitting.

The fourth one is still blurred and you were right about the design which is too simple.

@ WolfFloo2009- Yes! You are allowed to make whatever changes, and as many changes as you want. Or even make your own brand new lines! Just make sure you follow all of the other requirements :)

To get an idea of what is accepted you should go to Pets > List of Custom Skins.

Not sure if these were asked before or not, I should search through all the pages buuuuut I am way too lazy.

 

Is a skin allowed that has two live subjects in it? Like a dragon with egg, or a unicorn with foal? Roc feeding hatchling? Or a companion creature to the pet, like a little lizard? A secondary creature with the pet.

Are conjoined twins allowed?! Even though it would have extra limbs it's technically the same species, just a cute mutant.

Are objects allowed that are not tack/jewlery/armour? Items around the pet, like toys, rocks, trees, or bones.

Are minor backgrounds allowed? To compliment the skin, not to be the main subject. Maybe some sun, or space thing going on. Not to be a hard edged square but to blend with and fade at the edges so it would fade into the BeastKeeper background.

 

I hope I explained that all well enough.

Monues, you may add small companion creatures like butterflies, bugs, birds, snakes, lizards etc. Objects and effects are allowed unless they create a full-covered background. The case that you described is allowed if I understood you right.

Skins containing two pets including parent with a baby won't be accepted. I'd say no to the twin mutant as well, this still falls under the rule of additional limbs. Two-headed dragon and sleipnir unicorn may be technically considered conjoined twins too :)

Wasn't sure if this has been asked before, but I wanted to check just in case. I have this skin here that I wanted to submit, however, I was curious, are pattern overlays acceptable on skins?

In case if you create the pattern yourself and not just use a premade one then yes, this is acceptable. Usage of third-party stock images and cliparts isnt't allowed.
