This was submitted by Shadoweve. This is her "first submission" to the contest.
This is the same fucking skin that started the trypophobia bullshit. the only difference is the artist changed their username, slapped on flame designs to cover the dots, changed the colors on the wings and lied about it being their first submission. Here's the screencap of the original:
Why does it piss you off? Because they say its their first?
I'm surprised no one have made a big fuss over this.
Because there's black dots close to each other, in truth that accent is really no different than that guardian skin that was a drama over. People on FR are really weird when it comes to that.

I think that the reason the guardian skin with holes in it upsets people so much is because holes appear to literally be in the dragon's skin. For some people, a big part of trypophobia is they picture the holes being in their own skin and they don't like holes in skin in general.

I hate art thieves, because that's what they are.
@Kar
It looks like magma to me so no idea why people would get upset over it.
They aren't an art thief. It's the same artist with a different username. They changed usernames after the shit went down in the forums to hide.

We don't even know if the dots on that skin was actually meant to be holes. But yeah I see your point.
@Kitty
Oh, didn't realize they changed their name to that, only that they changed their name. They're probably saying it that way because its technically the same skin like you pointed out.

The important thing is that they look like they could be holes, so people with trypophobia won't like it regardless of whether or not the artist intended it to look like holes.

It doesn't help that the colors used for the skin (at the time) could be almost mistaken for human flesh tones and that the artist didn't explain anything about the skin at all.
