Just figured it out, it actually had to do with War Lock's headshot, I typed a backward "[" and it screwed things up. At least it was an easy fix! And now Whileaworldsleep's headshot shows up right as well. Yay!

It's nice to know I didn't completely overlook a nominated, deserving horse. That had made me not so happy.

I thought that would be a nightmare to set up but it only took an hour or so. Definitely worth the effort. Much, much better than a massive wall of text!

Looks like you put a lot of work into this!
It was fun to read and wonderful to see the headshots of some of those old timey horses...some that were still running when I first joined in 2006 (sim year 17) :P

And I have to say, that over the years, with all the gorgeous headshots that have been introduced, that Chesapeake Bay's headshot is still my number one favorite... fell in love with it the first time I saw it.

I'm not embarking on this any time super soon (I need a break!), but there absolutely is a horse headshot competition coming, a lot like the silks one I did several SIM years ago.

Wow, I can't even phantom the time and energy it took to write these up! Happy Snowman is going to be giving Coleman crap now for being higher on the Top 50 list ;) But hey, at least Happy Snowman 'beat' Sidney once and Coleman can't say he ever did that!

Happy Snowman should have been No. 1 just for that absolutely amazing headshot. I literally stopped the work I was doing multiple times just to stare at that thing.
