I agree, we really only have the eyecover mane and side for the majority of the female population, so we should definitely try to add more mane styles.

I love this idea. Most of the time, my fox Rice gets confused with as a girl. Along with on my other account Rylie, gets confused for a girl aswell. The color idea is really well thought out. An admin should be told this, and hopefully added in to a later version of the game.

Very much like the idea of colour coding; it would make differentiating easier for the less fluff-endowed species and just make things tidier (no more 'M/F' and variations thereof in the names), but it seems there should be a button to opt out or some form 'neutral' option. And limiting character customization based on gender would bug me, seeing as I tend to make fairly androgynous-looking characters that seem to confuse people (one more reason to really like the colour coded names XD).

Oh, and as for new manes, bring 'em on! Bring them in buckets! Grow out ALL the floof!

I like this idea because some users seem to get realllllllly butt hurt when you get their gender wrong XD.I know a user called me some not so nice names a few days ago for getting his gender wrong XD

A idea for realism with ought going too far could be a Sheath on the male lion and canine just not the other parts. Its not like a Sheath is anything bad many people even draw sheaths on there lions and canines for some realism.

Just a Idea :3 Hope I dont freak anyone out with it XD

also Mane Ideas....I may make some concept art of manes Id like to see ingame.

Honestly I thought about the sheath thing too especially since its a very obvious characteristic of gender distinction and we see it normally on dogs outside... I would hope no one thinks dirty of something that basic and natural. We look at that all the time when someone has a dog to see if its male or female but since I know many people may get easily offended thats why I figured the blue name/ pink name thing was the most "friendly" method. I definately would love to see your concept art of manes Nowe.  :)
