I agree!!! But I would add bay, since it’s my favorite horse color. And I don’t love pintos, to be honest. I do love Appaloosas.

Yes, bays are really pretty! I also love ginger and white paints! (I don't know if ginger is the proper term for the color)

Pinto is the official name for that color (depending on who you ask), and Rainflight, you picture of a 'strawberry roan' isn't very roan like. This is a more typical strawberry roan:

Rainflight, not Dawnfeather. But yes, pinto is the coat pattern with large splotches/spots. Paint is the breed named for their pinto coloration, because it looks sort of like someone painted spots on the horse. All Paints are pinto, but not all pintos are Paints.

Gotcha! Thanks! :D

Oops, I'll fixed that

My favorite is a Cremello! :D

I love how it looks golden! ^.^ My second is probably a leopard pattern, third I'd say a white (not gray)

White:

Gray:

And I love black and white pintos! :D

Pintos

Oki, thanks! ^~^

I LOVE BAYS!!!! AND BUCKSKINS AND BLACKS AND AAAAAAAAAAAA CREMELLOS TOO MANY AJANAMANANMANANA

Rainfeather, the picture you have for liver chestnut, is actually a picture of a silver bay dapple. This is a liver chestnut:

Also, a 'black paint' is actually a piebald pinto

Piebald and skewbald have nothing to do with the colors of the pinto horse’s coat, they are the names of the patterns. There are black and white skewbalds, brown and white piebalds, tan and white overos, etc., etc.,...

I also know that liver chestnuts and silver dapples can look exactly the same, sort of like flaxen chestnuts vs. dark palominos. The only difference in some of these cases is the genes. They can look identical.

Okay.

Wow! I LOVE dapple greys :D

I have been horse riding for 5 years, and have been reading horse books and finding out about horses ever since I was told that I could do horse riding. But the main thing that I have been researching is colouring, because there is so much to learn about it. Just recently I made a doc listing all the horse colours, markings and patterns, and I think I will post it.

(btw the difference between piebald, skewbald, pinto and paint is that piebald is black and white patched, skewbald is white and any other colour patched, pinto is and two colours patched but usually looks like skewbald or piebald so a pinto is usually pinto in genetics, and a paint is a pinto that is either a Thoroughbred or a Quarter Horse. :)

Yeah, there are few color breeds that are Quarter Horses of certain colors, like the Palomino.

Palomino isn't a colour breed, it's a normal horse colour.
