[Info] The Retired Coat Gallery

This thread is here to show off your Retired Coats. This is not the place to post non retired coats. **The two exceptions would be coats that have been pulled (brief discussions) and the pre release coats.

REMEMBER:

******** absolutely no sales talk, no talk about spares or how many extras of a copy you got and selling them to fund your RC habit this is just a place to talk RCs

* although links and graphics are ok on this thread, they are not allowed normally on public forums

* any negative or unkind comments on artists or coats (or anyone!) will be removed, and depending on the case, it might mean an instant forum ban.

* DO NOT use this as a place to sell your horse/coats-if you feel the need to break this rule, it will mean an instant forum ban...

** Sales ads are NOT allowed in any public forums. Asking for spare coats will now be considered a sales ad. This includes stating that you plan to sell a coat, or point out coats for sale in sales.

* Do not use this place as a spot for rants or complaints-About coats/BG/or each other.

* This is not the place to ask players to price your coats, or to ask others the worth of a coat, you can check uses on your own by hovering your mouse over the gray apple and price it from there.

* This is not the place to bring up the subject of stolen images. Keep in mind that the rules of the BP used to be very different, and many old coats are from that time.
There is not any reason to bring that up, or report the coats.

*Please do not do a coat countdown for soon to retire coats.

* Please do not post coats that are currently in the GA and have either not retired, or will never retire.

* Please do not post coat/bg combos or ask opinions on them, except following coat release.

* Some coats may be removed in the future, whether that be for problems with the coats itself or just because they're clearing room on the server to allow other coats to be uploaded - if you're buying retired coats, please keep that in mind. If you want a permanent copy, I would recommend saving the graphic to your computer

* How to discover who many uses a New GC coat will retire-There is now a coat countdown in the GA, and it will show how many have been used and how many uses there are left.

** There is now a new creations directory which shows all coats. Go to Community>>>Directories>>>Creations>>>Click more criteria, and on the left hand side is a gold and silver apple. Click the silver apple and search to see all retired coats.

* To see who created/how many uses/name/or if you have it already of a RC coat, simply click on the silver apple, and it will tell you.

*** Posting links to other player's coats is NOT allowed and can mean a forum ban.

*#*#*#* If players feel the need break the main topic rules, such as sales ads/coat countdowns/spares-you can expect an instant forum ban without any warning prior to it *#*#*#*

Those coats are absolutely awesome, i looked at all 3 pages, and some of the coats are way better than the ones now, except i thought you weren't allowed to edit photographs? Alot of them are obviously edited photographs x
I have a feeling that's why some of them are gone...

How do they decide to retire the coats? I definitely remember when some of them were in the black market. I wish I had used them now . . .

I don't think anyone really knows but the administrators, outside of the fact that they obviously remove coats that are proved to violate copyright. Also, the artists can deactivate their own coats if they wish.

A list of some of the reasons coats are retired.

The creator is no longer in the game.
http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=332592
That is by Strange who retired this year.

Some are retired by the creator

Then there is the ones taken from other stuff like models, Pony Island, photographs, a statue, paintings, and line drawings that are copywrited.

I have seen some that are against the rules like wearing hats and clothing and some are in the wrong category like a pegasus in the pony category.

Here is a list of the ones I have.


by Strange and there are a lot of them out there.

By Strange and very popular.

CraXor designed coat
http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=854831

Some of these have prices in them and were bought for a friend who collected coats. They are not for sale. Yes I did pay $25000 for one and 10 passes each for the CraXor

another reason coats are retired is the creator made all the passes they could off the coat, a total of 40 is allowed(or is it 20?) and they want either their other coats to try to get used or other peoples coats a fair chance to get used.

and mechurchlady...I have that Strange coat on one of my mares. I was gonna use her as a Pass horse but now I think not!!

When you see a Horse with a retired coat in the Sales (Auction or Private), you click the horse and it brings you onto the GA page, from where you can still use the coat. That's what I do to get some retired coats.
If the coat is retired all you get is this ! Select one of your horses to choose a special coat.
Meaning the coat is gone
