I do breed for conformation and temperament first, color is the added bonus. I will also say this year my herd is evolving because I've learned more about conformation and what I want, and needed to retire a broodmare this year also.
My goal had been to breed for black/bay appaloosas, but I must have changed my mind somewhere along the line this year and added more variety of colors.

I'm still focusing on breeding for appaloosas and pintaloosas, I'm just throwing a buckskin into the mix. :bgrin
I now have a solid bay mare, a black blanketed app mare, a buckskin app mare, and I hope to add a black and white pinto sometime in the next year or so.
My leopard stallion is homozygous for black, and he is my first love. I know he has faults, but there is just something about his presence that causes you to overlook his shortcomings.

I did have plans to geld him this fall, but talked myself out of it yet again.
