Other: Black.  I like most pigment colors, but tend to hide from light.

My favorite's always been Yellow. Though that's just the basic seven colors. My favorite metallic colors are Silver and Gold.

Speaking of which, you may have noticed how I just treated the color variations as separate. Well you see, it annoys me when someone is asked what their favorite color is and they respond with a different shade of a basic color that Crayola gave a stupid name to, such as Robin's Egg Blue, or Tickle Me Pink, some such crap.

Reminds me, I once saw a color named "Burnt Orange" It was from crayola, obviously...

Black because it's foreboding and secretive, just like me. Aw geez, now I sound like a goth kid.

That and black keeps me warm, unlike white.

Other: Black.  I like most pigment colors, but tend to hide from light.

It also annoys me when people say their favorite color is black or white because those are technically not colors.

White is all the colors combined and black is the absense of color.

That's true for light colors, but the opposite for pigment colors.  Also, I assumed you meant "absence"?

I just don't usually proof read my posts.  Sorry.

That was a joke.

(Note: I meant to post this 4 posts ago.)
Blue is my favorite color. Purple is very high up there, but blue is more versatile, which gives it more points in my book.

It also annoys me when people say their favorite color is black or white because those are technically not colors.
col·or –noun
1.   the quality of an object or substance with respect to light reflected by the object, usually determined visually by measurement of hue, saturation, and brightness of the reflected light; saturation or chroma; hue.

Anything you can see has a color. You're confusing pigments with colors. Black, white, and all the shades of gray just have no saturation, but that doesn't mean they're not colors.

White is all the colors combined and black is the absense of color.
That's only true if you're talking about light. (Gah, Luigison beat me to it.)

Can YOU tell the difference between Suffix's Hair Gold and Sapphira's Hair Gold?
Hahaha! Actually, Suffix and I have the same hair color.

I guess you can't tell the difference, then.

Sapphira's is softer.  At least it looks that way in her pictures.

I believe that is due to some minor picture editing. This has been discussed in another thread.

As for me, I like orange. It's not as boring as blue or red or green.

I like blue, but voted other because I like black more, and because I also like pink. Well, pink Yoshi, anyway.

It's not due to cropping, it's due to softening.
That was a joke.

C'mon, I once put 200 options into a poll--and you don't even have a choice for black?
