With the birthday page removed has the objective to congratulate someone on their birthday also been removed or replaced with something else?

That won't be necessary. For the objective is to congratulate a player—specifically, to visit their page and leave a congratulatory message. The player does not necessarily have to be celebrating a birthday.

It is great that the Herakles shoes for Western Pleasure have been fixed.

But why have the shoes for Reining now been broken? Reining still requires the sequence: Gallop – Dressage – Endurance. And NOT Gallop – Endurance – Dressage. default smiley :-x

I'm not a fan of this sudden layout change; especially the partially transparent bar at the top that is always there.
It's annoying how the new semi-transparent/blurry header is always on the screen. It's very distracting. Please change the header so it doesn't scroll with you. I don't want it on my screen at all times. Also, I wish I could have continued to use the Howrse app without updating to the new version. Each time I opened the app recently, it just said I 'needed to update' or 'login error'. It's a shame, as the new app version is a real pain to use.

The new update letting us fill ECs with multiple horses at once is great and is going to save so much time!

But you know what else would save a ton of time? Updating the Helios' Ray and Golden Apple filters. Scrolling through hundreds of backgrounds and coats sorted only by color is honestly exhausting. Even with the ability to favorite certain backgrounds, there are just so many amazing pieces of artwork in there that it's impossible to only like a few, and the clutter stops me from wanting to use them sometimes. I often find myself just settling on a background rather than finding the one I actually want because it takes too much time to figure out. Plus, the color filters don't always work properly—I've tried finding specific coats or backgrounds I know exist by color before, and they just don't show up. It would be great if we could get landscape tags (like forest, deep sea, space, beach, abstract, etc.). It would also be amazing to see something similar done for Golden Apple coats as well, since there are themes they could be sorted by. It would make finding the perfect background and coat easier and fit perfectly with the new time-saving features!
