As far as I know it's UK's rule.

hey i am sorry about Jadish but she's been that color since 2008 i've been drawing her forever

Sparkle animals are allowed on AS last I knew, but UK doesn't allow sparkle anything here.

why was it removed? i dont want to be rude, but i think that was a bad idea. it makes the site so much less, like, realistic.not like spirit is realistic, but it is more realistic than horses with purple manes

the rules for sparkle animals have been removed anyway, so some people who are older could be creating them unrealistically on purpose.
But if they are young memebers then Sierra is spot on

sierra- i know what you mean, but i am 12 years old, and i made zoey on paint! i just think that they dont put much effort into making raons

gemma- yeah, i saw that character, then theres also the horses that are bright blue, dark blue, purple, you get the point, i actually asked the person that has sparkle horses why they are these colors. although,if you read my answer to what sierra said, i just think that they could try a bit harder, considering i spent, i believe i spent about 2-3 days trying to complete zoey to her best perfection, although i do remember, the person that has the sparkle horses, did say he/she wanted the biggest char. gallery or something like that....

thankyou sierra and gemma

There's a variation in colour I guess because of angles on computers (laptops in particular). But yeah, I know what you mean with the extremes. Naming no names, I came across a character with a PURPLE mane. I thought 'sparkle' characters weren't allowed?

Roan is a difficult color to create digitally for some people. I've tried my best to make my roans realistic. You should be patient with some people however because there are a lot of very young people on this site (like 11 or 12 years old) and they don't know any better.
