Steve skin color is missing from character creator
Steps to Reproduce:
- Check character creator for skin colors
- See "Steve" skin color
- Look at skin color of the default Steve character
Observed Results:
Default Steve's skin color is nameless and unselectable while the color named "Steve skin" is different.
Expected Results:
Current "Steve" color should have a different name and give its old name to the unselectable steve color. The true steve color should also be selectable.
The steve skin color is gone and there is one in its place that is obviously too dark to be right. I have a character with the color but no color shown is selected.(the character in green has the true steve skin)

This problem is still present in the latest update
Can confirm this issue as well, the selectable Steve color i nthe Character Creator is far darker than the actual skin color for Steve, making it impossible to create a steve-themed skin without deleting and recreating a skin until Steve is chosen as the random default (Alex seems to have higher priority, or I just have bad luck with coin tosses)
