How To Change Isles

Alright, so up to now you've been beginning to get the hang of this "Horse Isle" website, right? So as you're questing, a virtual player asks you to go to Snow Isle to get something.

Snow Isle?! Say what?!?
Don't fret, friends! It's totally easy. Just get yourself to the Earton Docks (you can find them along the shore near the town of Earton to your left). Go inside the little shack thing (I still don't know exactly what it is!) and press Travel next to Snow Isle's name in the list of places you can travel. Easy as that!

Just bear in mind that Earton Docks will not get you everywhere. For example, if you need to get to Hotton on Desert Isle you have to go to Appleton Docks to directly go there.
Don't cry! Either Amelia or me, Sassy (PlaidIsRad on Cremello), will be posting a list of which dock to take to get to each isle!

A Note About These Layouts

Let me tell you 3 rules about these layouts:


  • Anyone can use them. Just copy/paste.
  • Do not remove the tag at the bottom that says Amelia and I made these. If you remove that, you are stealing and that is not okay with us. Please notify if you see any stolen layouts. :)
  • You are most certainly allowed to change/add any details you want. If you want to change a certain color or something that's fine by us.
Here's how to use them:

  1. Highlight the layout.
  2. If you have a Windows computer right click and press "Copy to Clipboard". If you have an Apple computer press the Apple Command button and the letter "C" together to copy the text.
  3. Log on to Horse Isle and press the Profile tab. Delete anything already there and paste the text into your profile. (On a Windows right click and press Paste. On an Apple press the Apple Command button and the letter "V")
  4. Press Save and then look at the Stats tab on Horse Isle to preview your layout. If it looks good to you then you can click on Profile to edit in your information. Remember to save!

"This relatively young breed is from Mexico and the result of breeding the Andalusian, Quarter Horse and Mexican Criollo. The Azteca has often been used for bullfighting though it is great with cattle and performs well in shows.  An intelligent, agile, spirited and elegant breed, the Azteca is a great, versatile horse that can only be found on the deserts of Horse Isle.  This breed ranges from 14-16hh."

Horse Isle Breed: Australian Stock Horse

"The Australian Stock Horse was originally brought to Australia, then the colony of N.S.W., in 1788.  Because of the unknown, untamed land the horses came to, they needed to be strong, reliable, have good stamina and temperament.  These characteristics were selected for during the early years of the breed currently making it considered one of the most versatile horses in the world.  This breed has been used for everything from a war horse in World War I to show jumping and general riding today.  In Horse Isle, this breed is only found in the desert.  The Australian Stock Horse ranges from 15-16hh."

Horse Isle Breed: Australian Brumby



"Many consider the Australian Brumby a national icon of Australia where as others consider them a pest.  The Brumby is a wild horse that roams Australia and was originally imported in the late 1700's to help in the exploration of the country.  These were left and have now become wild to roam in herds, much like North America's Mustang.  There are both positive and negative aspects of these wild herds, mostly involving the land.  They can help dig up water when it's dry that also waters other wildlife and enhance some tourism in the country, but they also invade cattle grazing ground and damage fragile plants.  Most roam free, but some are used as stock horses.  The Australian Brumby ranges from 13-15.2hh."

Possible colors: white, black, roan, pinto, chestnut, cremello, grey, palomino, bay, dun, brown
You could probably find this horse on most isles.
