Yeah, heterochromia is a bit annoying. I have blue/green complete heterochromia - one eye blue, one eye green - as well as gold central heterochromia - a golden-brown starburst-looking thing around my pupils. So they're both somewhat subtle instances... which means whenever anyone notices either type of heterochromia, they: 1) just keep staring at my eyes for a while, 2) point it out to whoever happens to be near, or 3) go on a minor rant about how cool my eyes are. It leads to a lot of people calling my eyes pretty, though, so I suppose that's not a horrible thing.
OT: I voted gold. As in... bright gold, cat's iris style. Pair that with my copper-red hair and I'd be amazingly fiery-looking. It'd be almost the complete opposite of my actual personality.
Fine, fine. Ask and you shall receive- but only my eyes, as I've always been paranoid about posting my picture on the internet. It's a bit of a crappy picture, but good enough.
And forgive the slightly dead look. I've just gotten back from donating blood. (Where they told me I have pretty eyes. Why would anyone tell me that while draining a pint of blood out of me?)
I have dark blue eyes, and sometimes I wish they were a little lighter, or greyer. But I don't think I would change them, if I could. I wore colored contacts occasionally years ago, and they are usually made for people with brown eyes, so going from blue to hazel, green, or brown just never looked right or blended well at all.
Alright, basic question for all you Escapists: if you could choose what color your eyes were, what would you pick? I'm afraid that the poll didn't have room for an "other" option, so if it's not one of the ones on the list than just type it out.
I would like either ice blue or lime green. Purple would imply that I'm mysterious, black - I'm possessed, red - I'm evil, gold - I'm a fairy, grey - maybe,it could backfire and make me look souless, brown - I'm brown-eyed, and it's boring: there's no sparkle or pazzaz.

That's really interesting, also that's a pretty nice picture. It's fairly subtle though, I bet most people wouldn't notice unless you tell them.
Maybe they just thought it would be a nice compliment?
Back on topic: As for me... I think if I could have any color eyes I'd like red eyes. It may look evil, but it would also be unique and red is my favorite color. But... since that might get me weird looks after awhile I might just prefer to stick to my current hazel/ green eyes.

They do look pretty
And yeah, like someone else said, I think (at least with the lighting from the picture) it's really subtle and a lot wouldn't notice without being told.
In the spirit of an eye for an eye (stupid pun...sorry)
Mostly because the lighting's really wonky. Kinda dulls my eyes out. On the bright side, though, it makes it look like I don't have the skin tone of Casper the Friendly Ghost.

Most people don't notice, but some do... usually it depends on the lighting and what I'm wearing. Wearing green really makes the green one obvious, and wearing browns tends to make the central ring thing more obvious. I don't usually tell people I have different color eyes, so I can always tell when my friends notice... they just start staring straight into my eyes. Or, in one case, interrupt marching band section drills to debate which color's better.
And yeah, the nice compliment thing was probably the intent, but... I really wasn't expecting it.
