That's an amazing DA, what?? I absolutely love the colors and pattern you chose, and the fact that you designed her yourself is even better! And yeah, DA Uni's are worth more than normal DAs. I have one myself, and from asking around it seems to be the most valuable of mine despite the fact that she isn't that flashy. It's the horn I tell you! Yours is actually one of the only other Unis I've seen in years, though I haven't been actively looking.
Also, what new pass system? o: I am completely in the dark on this.

Pretty Arabian! : D I love the patterns you chose, and I'm not usually a fan of Arabians but she catches my eye. I'm really sorry that you sold her though. :c And I'm jealous of you both for being able to design your own DAs back in the day. Was it fun?
Thank you.

This new pass system:
(Quoted from the Ambassador page.)
A profusion of passes!
We intend to completely change the monetization system on Howrse in order to make the game simpler, more flexible, and more streamlined. We plan to implement these changes by the end of this year.
In a nutshell, the passes and the diamonds as you know them will be converted into new passes as follows:
1 pass = 100 new passes
1 diamant = 10 new passes
Greater freedom
All the sources of diamonds will give you new passes that you can choose to re-invest in the Black Market, events, horse sales, or the Pegasus and VIP subscriptions.
To this end, the prices of Black Market items will also be re-evaluated to reflect their actual value as rightly suggested by the Ambassadors.
As for you, you will enjoy greater freedom with horse sales, you will be able to set lower prices compared to 1 old pass, and get a better price from your horse without using up huge amounts of Equus.
And from what i can recall of designing the DA's, it was pretty fun. The combinations, colours and markings that one could do was decent. And often unique as well. While not many exist, i don't see similar coats to mine which is nice. I've always wanted the DA or something similar to be bought back.

I've had a few favourites, but they've literally been influenced by the line work used on them during Howrse's various updates. During my time, I've liked Arabians, mustangs, Frisians, Shetlands, donkeys, and marwari. My newest favourites and current vintage apple project are the marwari~
Ah right, nice- i am kinda the same as well actually. I've liked PBSH/Curlies/Lipizzaner/Canadians/Connemaras/Hanoverians/Tekes/Marwaris and a few others because of the coat designs. The only exceptions are Appaloosa's and Knabstruppers, though mostly Appies, as i just love them as a breed, heh.
The Marwari Vintage Apples are awesome- one of the best ones. Though i do still like the current one as well.
