A skin allows only a solid color; transparency is not allowed on the skin file except on the second layer, which is transparent by default; playing offline, pixels can be left free resulting in 'holes' in the skin. If a skin with transparent pixels on the first layer is uploaded, the transparent pixels render as black pixels in-game. The second layer can be used to give the character glasses, hats, or other accessories (even a bigger head).World textures.
