You can use custom skins on the server, just beware that some of them look absolutely terrible. I used to use a few custom skins, but the scrim servers forced me to use the standard skins, and the gun sounds glitched out because of this, so it was horrible and I went back to the normal skins. The only skin I use now is this really well textured skeleton glove skin.

It's probably best to keep your default player skins, but change weapon skins and gloves/sleeves if you want to

yea, thats because maybe ur custom weapon skins have the sound file for its custom sound in the pack...
haha

Nah it would still play the stock CS:S gun sounds, but it was really horribly glitched out on a few of them, probably because there was some kind of conflict. Either way, I changed a bunch of my graphics settings and the stock models now all look really good (not to mention the maps) so I am happy with it
