I am obsessing over it a bit too much so I am looking for some advice from you lovely people. :)
I am hoping to gene up a Macchiato and a Snowflake foundation stud before the end of the Gene Refresh sale . I have a few boys in mind and would love your input. Who do you think would look best with which gene?
If I can manage it I may try for W8 or Kitm in the near future too so I guess I would like input on those as well.
I am still quite new so I have a hard time looking at my studs and visualizing how their current genes will interact with any new ones.
I understand that Macchiato will lighten the coat a fair bit. Does it need frame too look its best? Or is it okay on a horse without? Can I get away with removing Frame on the boys that have it (VoS) if I have the GMTs to spare? I see that many people seem to prefer their mares to carry it over their studs.

These are my boys that are up for consideration. (I am aware that some of them may currently have living foals. I am willing to sell them back to the game if I decide they are the best fit for the genes.)

I also intend to create a black liver stud for Freaky Friday who should be considered in this list. (Why did Mushroom have to end before FF?! :-((

For your consideration:

I have these two handsome lads as well but only if there is overwhelming agreement that they are the best choice as they have a few foals I would have to get rid of:

BW RS Elope
White Wedding (I don’t want to do anything that may lose me his white striations.)


BW Liv and Let Liv
ExPro Appy (Seriously considering Yumming(?) his current foals just so I can make him Hom DP as my goal is to breed primarily black livers.)

I also have these two lovely ladies who I could gender change too (I love my Silver Blacks!):

Prime Light 30hbs

*EDIT*
Just found this girl too who could be gender swapped:

Whew! Thank you for your patience and any advice you are willing to share! ^:)^
