In the database there are 12 skins, but I've only had 6 listed on the site. This is because of a poor assumption on my part. You see, the remaining 6 have the same file names as the ones that are already listed, except that they have "_wet" added, and the colours are very slightly darker and higher in contrast than their counterparts. My bad assumption was that these were used in tandem with the lighter, "non wet" skins to make an effect. But it appears that they're not - they're used separately and many are already in use. I'm just unsure which at this stage, but there's quite a few.

So how do you tell the difference between these shades when you're in the wild and have nothing to compare them to? It turns out there's a subtle difference in the transparency mask between the "wet" skins and the normal ones, and it shows up around the first and second tufts of their mane. All the lighter skins have a more notched appearance, but you have to look closely:
It's going to take a while to sort through them all. It's even possible for an NPC to have a mix of both. At the moment I've just added the looks to the database and set them as unused, which is not going to be the case. See:
