Dispalying the face of peoples skins on a webpage?

I've seen it done somewhere before (I forget where), but i want to grab the players skin from mc.net take just the face and display it as an avatar on a web page, how do i go about doing this?

Infact it doesnt have to be just the face, something like this would be good : http://www.mcskinsearch.com/

Check the Bukkit Tools section, I remember seeing a phython or PHP script that does it Thats all I've seen though...Depending on what you want, I know that spout can make a 3d model (As used in their launcher). Maybe talk to @Wulfspider

 

Ok, thanks, i'll check out the Tools section, maybe tal kto wulfspider as a last resort I don't really like approaching people for stuff, makes me feel like a burden

 

Meh, Wulfspider is a nice guy, he doesn't bite (For the most part). Either way, good luck finding something! Sorry I couldn't help directly

 

No problem thanks

 

http://minotar.net

 

Holy Notch! That's a nice website you (or not you) got there. Just out of curiosity. A plugin would be able to pull the picture too right?

 

yes

 

Plugins can even do this: http://78.143.11.205:8107/worldmap/ (I googled this IP) - this is BukkitHTTPD + BoxxWorldMap.

 

Yeah I know My question was a bit silly as I do know you can make anything possible with just enough time.

 

Minotar is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

However, there is still question: how do you ask mincraft.net for a skin file? I want to avoid a situation, where I use these on my website and Minotar will close their website. I want to be independent from external sites. Any thoughts?
