| Evil looking dog....... Why is the picture in the Yorkietalk logo such an evil looking dog ? There are such beautiful yorkie's all over this site, I dont understand why this picture is used as a logo. Those eyes look really evil.

| Dog is a cutie but I agree- they could use a much better photo without the green eyes and such.

| I think its one of those camera/eye/flash problems - I have it all of the time - mostly with my larger dog - I'm sure her little one doesn't really look like that - or that her eyes don't ....I usually put my photos into i-photo and take out the weird eye flash thing..... |

| Sorry Admin, I didn't mean to be rude about your dog, its just the photo. Those eyes really stare at me.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | You know the little green light that is under the username? (See picture). If it lights up green, this tells us the user is online. If blue, the user is offline. I think Yoda's picture just tells us he's online all the time! By the way, most Yorkies with silky coats show up with green eyes when a flash is used. Some cameras reduce this effect, and you can eliminate it if additional room lighting or spotlights are used. However, many of us have grown to love the look.

| Funny, I was wondering the same thing. Very cute dog... but creepy green eyes. I didn't realize it was a picture of a real dog. Some of my photos come out the same way, it just depends on the angle I think.

Thor's Human Donating Member | Aw, it's just a flash in the eyes. It happens to the best of dogs! I think he's a cutie. Thor has an extremely silky coat and his eyes can look orange or green in the flash. I agree it just depends on the angle of the camera. It probably wouldn't be too hard to photoshop the eyes.

| We love you Yoda, green eyes and all!!! Sometimes if you try to take the color out of the eyes, the picture actually looks worse.

| I've seen Yodas pictures and he's so cute. It's just the camera flash that makes his eyes appear green...that happens when I take pictures of my Chloe sometimes too....

| Can I just say Bianca, that i did know this was a real dog, it could of just been clip art. When I was told it was admins dog I apologized. It was more rude of you to call me crazy and rude.

| It's all in individual perceptions. Since I know about the green eye reflection = silky coat, I don't see those little green eyes as scary at all. I think of it as a BIG positive. I would guess that Yoda has a nice silky coat. It has been said that if your dog's eyes reflect light as green, the coat is silky. If they reflect light as red, they have a cotton coat. This proved true for my two and many, many members have reported the same. Puppies reflect as blue for several weeks.
