Now, maybe if your Poptropican’s arms happened to turn black while wearing a black jacket, this might not look so bad. But, if your arms turn bright pink and you proceed to put on a blue shirt, this could be a major fashion disaster! We wouldn’t want that to happen, now would we? But wait, we don’t have to worry any longer, because there is a very simple way to fix this unfortunate discoloration.
The solution is quite simple, but unfortunately, this does not prevent the problem from happening again. Whatever causes this issue to occur has not yet been resolved. So you may still notice this happening nearly every time you return to an island with the old format. And I must admit, it gets pretty frustrating. But hey, at least it’s easy to fix. Here’s how.
OPTION ONE: This method goes back to an old glitch that has been used for many years. All you need to do is go to a non-SUI hold down Ctrl + Shift + S on your keyboard, which causes your Poptropican’s skin tone to change randomly. Just repeat this keyboard trick until you find your original skin tone (note: there is a limited selection). It may take a few tries to get a color you like. Once you do it, you will notice that your Poptropican’s arms and legs look normal again.
OPTION TWO: As I stated before, the first method only works with default skin tones. So, what about custom skin tones? Well, the solution is still very easy. All you need to do is remix the color. But using the free Colorizer in the New You shop on Home Island will not solve the problem, since Home Island is a SUI. Instead, you will have to purchase the Colorizer gold card from the store so it can be accessed on other islands. Once you have the Colorizer item, use it on any non-SUI to remix your custom skin tone next time your Poptropican’s arms decide they don’t want to match anymore.
And that’s it! Pretty simple, right? There’s no need to worry about those discolored arms ruining fabulous outfits any longer. Well, that’s all for now. I hope this helped!
first and cool
Finally, I can get rid of that stupid discoloration of the limbs. Great post!
OMC Thank you for this! i just wish my limbs were blu and black (blu shirt, black pants) rather then one color. But Now i can change them from black! Or they might be white now. Who know?
I’ve always wondered how that happens, but thanks for showing us this!
Awesome post! 😉 I don’t like going onto SUIs unless I’m replaying SUI quests, because of the arm discolouration, so this is really helpful.
thanks, I always hate when this happens. I once had a blue shirt and some yellowish greenish arma
Am I the only one who does not get brothed my this?
Well if you don’t get bothered by it then that’s fine. However, many people find this glitch annoying, so I wrote this to help those who do 🙂
Yes. I am very bothered by it cause ugly rainbow arms are annoying. If you don’t want to fix your limbs then you don’t have to but this post is really helpful thanks for writing PS :))
I agree with Short Dolphin

Déjà vu?
I’m thinking I’am too confused.
This is an old post from 2016, and the glitch it talks about doesn’t apply anymore. For the latest Poptropica news, check out our blog homepage!
