Wonder what color she really is???

Postby NYBreeder » Sun Oct 09, 2005 8:25 pm

Found an ad for a mare that looks buckskin?? Horrible photos and I am thinking she is body clipped in the first one. The only other one you can make out looks like there is a possible dorsal stripe?? Anyone else think that?

If you can not laugh at yourself, you will not be able to take it when I laugh at you! ;)

She's bay.

Those are some CRAP pictures. Why do people insist on trying to sell something like? It's not that hard, if you can't see anything but pixels, don't use the bloody picture. Bad pictures do more to hurt a sale then no pictures, IME.

It almost looks like someone's trying to blow up a thumbnail or something. Like it started off super small and they're trying to make the horse bigger so you can see it but like you said Sam, not really a good idea compared to no picture at all. That'd be the best way to go in this case.

Discard the first dunnish photograph and enjoy browsing the second. She is a bay! Interesting pedigree but since she is a run-of-the-mill, lets say, sort of common light bay, there is no mystery here. :D
