As we add on more members (welcome!) the poll is down to one colour - GREEN! LOL I'm quite sure that everyone wasn't expecting a variation of green for 3 months so I think I'll close the poll and go with my original idea of a hybrid colour. It's quite clear that black/brown/yellow/orange are just not preferred so I won't be touching these colours or any variations of them as I hadn't really planned on them anyway.
I really appreciate everyone's feedback and I hope I can come up with something pleasing for everyone - stay tuned!

Let's Talk About Colours
Now that people have started voting on the colours poll and there's 3 colours that currently aren't on the "chopping block", it got me to thinking...maybe the poll is a little too simplified.
For instance, when you say you don't like red - what does that mean? There are a lot of variations in red and to conclude that it's all ranges of the red family is a little too simplified for me to do - am I to assume you hate brick red and fire engine red the same? Some of the colours are "no-brainers" like black and brown - not too many variations in those two colours but for the other colours like yellow, orange, red, pink, burgundy - is it all ranges of these colours that people don't like? If we end up with 3 colours by the deadline that'll make it simple for me but I just wanted some feedback on your choices...can you elaborate for me in the comments?
To be honest, I was surprised to see some of the colours chosen - like red or burgundy or even pink - I thought those colours were well-liked...but maybe it's just certain versions of these colours you don't like.
Would love to hear from you!

Colours Poll
Please vote in the following poll to let me know what colours you absolutely don't want to see - if a colour is not listed, please choose "Other". If you are fine with all colours, please just leave a comment saying you are fine with any colour. I am hoping by gaging some feedback it will help us to avoid the biggest drawback of being in a sock club - receiving yarn you'd never use and absolutely don't like. This will help me to avoid those colours that people really don't want.
UPDATE 8/17/07: poll closed since we're down to only one colour already!
