(It was recommended to repost this idea here from the Suggestions section)
Imagine lava for a moment. You know how lava blocks have the same level of brightness no matter what environment they're in? There should be a way to make certain player skin pixels disregard shading so that they look like they're glowing. It doesn't necessarily have to emit light like lava does, but it just needs to disregard the shading.
I thought of a potential way to implement it into the skin file. There could be a separate group of head, arms, torso, etc. sections where you just draw masking pixels that signify whether the color on the corresponding skin is "glowing" or not.
No. Just no. It's fine how it is right now. I don't want to see a bunch of fullbright skins on multiplayer. Plus people could edit the creeper skin to be easily visible in the dark, which gives a huge unfair advantage.
Well it helps me to be able to see people, because when it's dark, sometimes I can see just their name. Also, some people, like myself, would want to have skins like that, because I think it looks cool. At least having the option should be an option.
The game is open source isn't it? People can make mods that make the gameplay unfair anyway.
Plus, it doesn't have to work the same way for mob skins. I was just suggesting it for player skins.

The only use I can see this having is for things like dead space skins, with the RIGs glowing in the back, and visors. or glowing parts like eyes for their characters. elsewise I disagree.
Just to let u know it's the future and I hate mine craft a lot and if there were glowing skins I would love it I kinda like it because my friend modded it for me so I am boss at it and if you modd it you can have glowing skins

i agree with everyone saying no, the influx of flashbang skins would be beyond annoying
I disagree. I think the guy who said it could be toggleable had a good idea. Glowing skins would be cool if done right AND if they could be toggled on and off.

I'm agreeing with this guy.
Just, NO.

It would be a fine idea, IF you could one toggle the glowing, and two, toggle it on servers.
