Confirmed issue on skins in 14w34c on some computers. I see report of Beed28 on Minecraftforum.net :
"After updating to 14w34c, my skin is no longer working ingame. When I load the game, I either appear as the default Steve? skin or the weird abomination thing in the attached screenshot. My skin appears fine in 1.7.10."
Environment
Windows, Mac OS X, Linux
My husband and I are also getting this... pink really looks bad on me. Black is fine... pink is just no.
