These photos are HORRIBLE examples of the vocabulary that is offered here. The worse images are of the palomino, the cremello and of the appaloosa. Most palominos are deep blonde with light blonde mane and tail. Search for cremello images, and you'll see that the horse looks almost creme gold yet pink, and has unusual eyes. The photo here in this collection of the cremello is abysmal.

There are two types of black, fading black and non-fading black. Most black horses will fade to a brownish color if the horse is exposed to sunlight on a regular basis. Non-fading black is a blue-black shade that does not fade in the sun.-Jonathan Berkowitz

The basic outline of equine coat color genetics has largely been resolved, and DNA tests to determine the likelihood that a horse will have offspring of a given color have been developed for some colors. Discussion, research, and even controversy continues about some of the details, particularly those surrounding spotting patterns, color sub-shades such as "sooty" or "flaxen," and markings.-Jonathan Berkowitz
