Ah! That's sort of creepy!
Today's caption contest image is hilarious though. Take that Illusen. Muwhahaha.

I wonder what they meant to say by it though. :roll:

Bah! I still can't tell Blue from purple. That looks like blue to me, nowhere near purple. O_o Weird...

The CC is pretty funny and i like Pinklets being noticed for once. Now if Tigermouse was seen more...

If it makes you feel any better... it looks like blue to me, as well. First thing I thought was "That isn't purple..."

I'm sure if you complain enough they could change it so it's purple with orange spots...

I love today's Caption Contest image, make's me want to get one of those evil little piggies!!

I thought it was Blue... Purple? Maybe not...

They couldn't make it blue without replacing the original:

And since they didn't replace it now I doubt they're going to, tnt have a thing about removing images from their servers, heh. So purple in the url, purple it is. I'm more interested in how they managed to let yet another url spelling error through, the new ones say beakadoodle...it's beekadoodle you people who have no spellcheckers you! </rant>

Besides with all the different shades of red, blue, green and yellow petpets I think it's nice we don't get the usual orange spotted bright purple for once

Okay, I'm sorry, but for some reason, that bed just reminds me of Michael Jackson. And his creepy face.

Oh, by the way, that Beekadoodle does NOT look purple. It's blue, I tell you! Well, maybe indigo. Violet? I dunno. I never learned (learnt?) my colors when I was in Pre-K. *bricked for not knowing correct grammar or colors*

I agree that it looks more blue than purple but I like it. It is, as someone mentioned, vastly better than purple with orange spots.

The Beekadoodle is more of a violet blue (the violet being more dominant than the blue) than a blue (they make it rather distinctive in most cases)
