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.
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.
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. :)
Last Comment: Stormwing: Stormwing threw up his head and trumpeted a loud over-stallion call for his warriors to gather, "You may NOT leave, Bloodwing, with our foal that YOU kidnapped," he snarled, slicing the air with his hooves, "You aren't going to take Lakestar with you again against his or my will!"
Once a wild herd of pegasi entered the landwalkers territory, they all became tame and loved there owners. One Pegasus didn't like humans and lived in the woods away from anyone. She never thought her best friend Rivertail would join the humans and she never forgave him. Meanwhile with the tamed pagasi, they couldn't wait to be in the sky guard and fly around with there new owners. Rivertail thought about it and he overheard the landwalkers talking about a strange Pegasus was found in the woods nearby and they wanted to capture her. Rivertail knew it was Everhope. He had to lower them away from her and he had to do it fast. They already spotted her in the woods and he knew she didn't like to be tamed. Rivertail talked with the other Pegasus and they couldn't wait to find that magical Pegasus. The humans told them that when she was in the sun, her coat shinned and her dark pink wings sparked in the wind. They always knew that a Pegasus can look like that and i was an old legend that if they find that Pegasus, then the clan would have good luck all year. A young girl named Loretta loved the sound of that but she couldn't fly and she didn't have a horse. She thought it would be the perfect horse for her to ride in the sky guard and protect everyone. So she ventured into the woods to look for that wildling. Her older brother was a part of the sky guard and he knew that it would be the perfect horse for Loretta to ride because he knew being part of the sky guard was her dream.

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)

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.,...

Okay.
Wow! I LOVE dapple greys :D

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.
