It is not really the time for this yet. The way I understand it, the skin system will be remade before support for custom skins will be truly considered.

This issiue is a lot trickier than the map download thing though. I wouldn't want to see any skins not conforming with the teeworlds style autodownloaded and becoming part of everyday playing. Plus there is the copyright issues.

When the time comes, I believe some kind of manual check of skins will be neccessary before they become publicly visible within the game. Pherhaps there could be a group of appointed trusted volenteers to whom you send skins you want approved or something like that.

Re: idea: a "custom" folder

We're currently not focusing on community and customization features, but rather on the core gameplay experience. We've stated numerous times that most customization features are unsupported, and that we'll revisit those once the actual game is where we want it.
