my club uses a small variation on this (we cut a few belts out):

 

white (9), orange (8, 7), green (6), purple (5, 4), brown (3, 2, 1)

Our dojo's system is white, yellow, orange, green, blue, purple, brown, and black.

 

Of course, each belt receives three stripes: 2 black and 1 red, which signifies that you are ready to grade.

 

It takes about 3 months to get each belt, until you get to brown, where you have to grade for each stripe.

Each Club in any given style sets up their own belt order. General Rule of thumb go from light to dark.
