I am playing 1.7.10 forge. I have no mods or resource packs installed. Can someone tell me what to do?

I'm not entirely sure, but it looks like your skin uses a second layer. In 1.8, a second layer was introduced, and because of that the skin format had to change. In the place where 1.8's skin reader would have decided that was the overlay, 1.7's skin reader displays the top layer as the only one. You'll have to switch to 1.8 to use that skin.
There are multiple versions of Forge for each Minecraft version, because they update it when bugs are found or when adding features. You are probably trying to use a mod that requires a development version of Forge for Minecraft 1.4.7.
To illustrate, Forge 6.6.0 is the latest stable version of Forge for MC 1.4.7, but the very most recent development snapshot available from the Forge file server is:
Build 6.6.2.534: 2013-02-24 23:03:06 for MC: 1.4.7
I played with this for a while (just for fun though(dont use it on a server(It's still unfair compared to the other players))). I used a x-ray texturepack which you can just put in your texturepack in .minecraft or directly through minecraft itself.
Since this is a texture-pack and no mod it doesn't interfere with any mods. The obvious downside it that you cant combine this with a fancy hd texture pack but you wouldn't see any blocks anyhow so that doesn't matter.
