So if we are only allowed to use PD model/skins/coding, how can we get the extra pointies for a scratch mesh and an original skin?

That means you can't use stuff that isn't PD as a base if you can't mesh or whatever from scratch ;)

Like Furka said:

If you make the model from scratch, you get extra pointies for that.
If you use a PD model, you can only gain extra pointies if you actually edit the model.
However, you are not allowed to enter with a model that is not PD and edit that. (unless of course you are the original maker of the model)

When the skins for male and female are different from each other, it will count as a variant skin, and you'll get extra pointies for that.
