I take it you have brown eyes? :p

[juniormaj]

Drivers license says hazel.
I find them to be greenish at times, and brownish at other times.
Sometimes they are a swirl of brown and green.
Is that the definition of hazel?

i Have quite distincly different coloured eyes, blue & brown.. although the blue one tends to be greener during summer months. I swear my mum poured bleach in my eyes when I was young.. sadly innocent until proven guilty over here.. and i have zero proof. :'(

[Kenny Pollock]

My eyes turn different shades of blue depending on what color clothing I wear.

[slowtreme]

blue of course. why have any other color? :)

[Sabenth]

Pleased to anouce that today my eyes are brown tomrow there gona be a slight shade of green. wensday i thought id go for blue lol...


Brown eyes :)

[Sonofhaig]

What is considered the dominant eye color worldwide? Isn't it brown? What does this poll say about Mac users? Interesting...

[Victoriatus]

Grey.

Mine are exactly the same.

Now, blue should not be leading this. Aren't the blue eye genes the weakest (or whatever the genetic opposite of "dominant" is) of the bunch?

I have a theory: People with blue eyes are more apt to participate in this poll than those without blue eyes are. Perhaps people with blue eyes are prouder of their eye color than other people.

My theory.

[howard]

i have green eyes mostly but also some golden brown on the insides...depending on the day it seems.

i always was wonder what exactly is hazel??

i actually don't like blue eyes...i like most colors better than blue in eyes.

[Fender2112]

I didn't see an option for bloodshot :(

Brown, here.

Maybe the brown-eyed mac users just haven't woken up yet. We're lazy bums, you know...;)

According to the dictionary, Hazel is a light yellowish-brown color. Damn, I always thought Hazel was blue-green! My eyes are a deep green but can be bluish depending on what I'm wearing.

Now as an adult I realize that my mom always told me my eyes were hazel because her *own* eyes were hazel. Looking at her eyes closely, they're basically yellow and don't resemble mine that much.

So now I've basically taken to just saying my eyes are green, since that is mostly accurate and generates the least confusion.

[virividox]

brown, smtimes its red

[thecow]

GO BROWN!!!!

[eyelikeart]

There's more hazel here than I imagined there would be. ;)

[redAPPLE]

all that pollution makes our eyes brown... :cool:

[michaelrjohnson]

i am very surprised at the number of people with blue eyes! mine are blue, and i thought we are a minority... apparently not!

[awulf]

I'm not sure if my eyes are Blue or Blue-Green so I voted for Blue-Green.

[dfa4]

Brown skinned and brown eyed!!!!

[Aeolius]

I had to vote "other", because my eyes are often blue, sometimes gray, and occasionally green.

Thats me. I put down blue. The color changes a bit depending on my mood.

[Dont Hurt Me]

another whats your favorite color thread:rolleyes: shouldnt this be at spymac.

[rainman::|:|]

My eyes range from ocean blue to steel gray, depending on a lot of things. My mood seems to affect it somehow, when i'm tired/depressed/upset my eyes turn gray, lose all color. When i'm in a good mood, or the weather is nice, they're blue. it's weird. Yes, other people have noticed, i'm not imaging it :)

Since they spend half their time gray, i chose "other".

Sidenote, i am able to wiggle my eyes-- make them vibrate or convulse very fast back and forth. i read a medical explanation of this once, a certain percentage of the population can do it. apparently you can rip the muscles right out of your eye if you do it too much tho...

[wdlove]

My eyes are blue, seems to be the majority. It goes along also with my favorite color. Also matched the color of my chosen military service. :)

[mrsebastian]

mine are hazel, seems as though this poll is dominated by my blue eyed friends here ;)

[joker2]

I voted blue, but mine vary the same as paulwhannel's, varying from blue to gray depending on health and mood. People can usually tell when I'm sick: my eyes go gray and my skin loses color; they describe me as a ghost.

[SiliconAddict]

Hazel green....wouldn't have it any other way :)

I've always wanted cat eyes though. The ability to see in near pitch black conditions would rock. That and the scare-the-****-out-people factor would be priceless.

[vniow]

Dark brown although I want some black contacts to I can look like my AIM icon....

[billyboy]

I always thought my eyes were brown, but apparently they can turn hazel too - a neat trick when staring doey eyed at a pretty girl.

I suppose David Bowie would have to vote twice.

[Marble]

I think it's sociological - Blue eyes reflect a certain caucasian part of the population that still holds a certain standard of wealth in most western countries today (bond hair blue eyes is still largely considered aesthetic by society, and is a combination that is not usually associated with poverty), and as we are mostly wealthy enough to afford Macintosh computers and to spend gobs of time on the internet talking about our eye color, we are a direct reflection of that strata of society.

Green eyes.

[Nermal]

My eyes are blue, which seems to be the minority overall, but the majority of Mac users. Interesting.

Ditto. Although I don't stare into my own eyes all that often, or for too long. :p

[Macmaniac]

OH YA BLUE!

[GroundLoop]

I had to vote "other" because my eyes are more gold than blue. Very gold around the pupil, gradually getting more and more blue as you get further from the pupil.

paul Yeah, I can do that with my ****-brown eyes too :D

[MrMacMan]

Orange

DAMNIT

I'm always left out.


Stupid non-heard of eye color... err.

:(

[bennetsaysargh]

do you really have orange eyes? if you do, that's so cool! i've kinda been waiting for someone to ask for an option, i thought everyone would be represented here ;)

My eyes are in a constant "wiggling" state, known as nystagmus. :rolleyes: I don't try to do it, and it doesn't blur my vision unless my eyes are really tired or I have a headache. Apparently when people are drunk, a similar thing happens. :eek:

Oh, and my eyes are blue.

[Mudbug]

The eyes have it!

green for me :)

[edenwaith]

It appears that grey was left off the list.

And hazel is usually a mix between green and brown. Sometimes hazel eyes will change between shades of brown and green.

[mms]

Dark brown/blackish. Azn and proud of it!

[jero]

BROWN!

Oh, and my eyes are blue. I know a kid with that. He's legally blind and an annoying little ****. It's weird when he stares you in the eyes...

When I do it, I can feel a stressing almost tearing sensation near my ducts. Obviously I don't do that often.

[Counterfit]

Hmm, maybe what I can do is different, because I don't feel any stress at all...

Nystagmus is very annoying. Both my wife and I have a slight case of this conditon.

[Counterfit]

Um, he's not annoying because of it, he's just damned annoying.

[howtoplaydead]

[scaredshoeless]

"I find them to be greenish at times, and brownish at other times.
Sometimes they are a swirl of brown and green." <- - - -mine are exactly like that ^____^! But lately, I've found mine to be flat out green most days...

"According to the dictionary, Hazel is a light yellowish-brown color. Damn, I always thought Hazel was blue-green!" <- - - -it is...the dictionary is refering to the color of a hazelnut, and that definition does not apply to eyes; hazel eyes are a mixture of green and brown, sometimes with some gold mixed in around the pupil (like mine), and sometimes with some blue mixed in (like mine on some days)...

"Now, blue should not be leading this. Aren't the blue eye genes the weakest (or whatever the genetic opposite of "dominant" is) of the bunch?" <- - - -actually, no. Green and grey eyes are the most rare of all the eye colors, as a matter of fact.

So yeah, in case you haven't already figured it out, my eyes are hazel.

[2nyRiggz]

BROWN baby...yea!!! u can do it!!!

[PlaceofDis]

blue/grey myself

[jsw]

Hazel.

And, BTW, Holy Thread Resurrection, Batman!

[joepunk]

License says Hazel. My mother always said I had Hazel eyes. But my eyes don't match the dictionary description, they are actually green/blue. I still stick with Hazel.

[Whyren]

Brown, though at times they get a bit hazel-ish...'course I could just be ill at those times.

"Now, blue should not be leading this. Aren't the blue eye genes the weakest (or whatever the genetic opposite of "dominant" is) of the bunch?" <- - - -actually, no. Green and grey eyes are the most rare of all the eye colors, as a matter of fact.

Plus the fact that just because a type of gene is dominant does not necessarily mean it is the most commonly found type.

[Aarow]

Brown. Me mom must be so sad. My brother, me, and my sister all have brown eyes like my dad. My mom has green eyes...

[Vader]

Hazel

[iSaint]

Blue!

Is that the iG???? The man exposes himself! I mean, wait...scratch that. I meant let us see what he looks like...his face.

[gekko513]

What's the difference between brown and hazel?

I have blue eyes with a yellow center.

[jsw]

I have blue eyes with a yellow center.
Cool! Everyone's eyes I've seen are black in the center. You're unique!

[zelmo]

Cool! Everyone's eyes I've seen are black in the center. You're unique!

Unique, or a werewolf?:D

Mine are blue.

[im_to_hyper]

Hazel.

And, BTW, Holy Thread Resurrection, Batman!

That's what I was thinking, too. I was gonna say something until I noticed your post.

Well anyway, if this was still active, mine are light brown with green around the pupil, whatever that color is.

[gekko513]

All right, all right :o blue, but yellow just around the pupil

[njmac]

Hazel.

from Wikepedia:

Hazel eyes
Hazel is usually used to describe eyes that contain elements of both green eyes and brown eyes. Some hazel-eyed people have irises which transition from green at the edges to a light or darker brown near the center.

wierd too that both my kids have blue eyes and their father has brown.

[eva01]

i have a greenish-blue type eye color, i have not seen it in other people before

[w_parietti22]

My eyes keep changing colors on me... first it was blue, then it was blue-green and then it was green. I have no clue what to think.

[Deepdale]

Color me hazel.

[dcv]

blue

[Jaffa Cake]

Greeny-brown here. They do have a tendency to change a bit though – obviously they look a bit different depending on the light, but I've been told in the past that they do go greener/browner depending on my mood... :confused:

[iSaint]

Hazel perhaps? And affected by what you're wearing and the light.

Hazel - but looking at them closely for the first time in a while, the green bits seem a lot more grey than they used to be. Maybe my eyes are getting old. :confused: :p

[wdlove]

It's awesome to be among others with blue eyes like mine. I have always been very proud of my blue eyes.

[Artful Dodger]

Ahhh blue eyes I have which my gf loves and she has green eyes which I find very sexy...there's that look from her now...I'll be back ;)

[iEdd]
