    They are not :puke...they are summer-y!:p

    and of course they go with sandals I have, they are a nice neutral color!

    I do a different colour every week, all of them the most obnoxious ones I can find. I've currently got screaming bright purple (almost fluorescent), but it's horribly chipped. Next I was actually thinking of going with green, although mine is more of a lime than what you've got. :-D

    I do it for my own amusement, mostly. Because it makes me giggle a lot knowing that inside my beat-to-heck work boots my toe nails are bright orange (or blue, or red, or fuschia...whatever I've chosen). Also, the more obnoxious the colour, the better my odds of picking it up from the "we want this stuff gone" bins for way cheap. :-D

    I Knew at least one of the MG females would get green! I like blue too. Normally I do purple-ish ones. My daughter loves the neon ones like it sounds you wear, Tibbs. I bet they all go with your work boots.:-D

    :cry :cry :cry :cry My green is dried up! Also my orange, and the best blue. Which means I must need to cruise the nail polish section the next time I'm at the store. ;) Of course, if I bought quality nail polish instead of the cheap stuff, I probably wouldn't have to replace it every summer, but whatever.

    I don't really do the actual neon colours, just the obnoxious ones. LOL Here's what I currently have to choose from. I'm leaning toward the chrome purple, since I don't have any green. Or maybe the blue. :-D

    Well... my feet aren't one of my shall we say "strong points" :-D But I occasionally opt for a postbox red. I also own a jar of orange paint. No point in using it on my fingernails, just not long enough. (That's not to say that my toenails are great big talons ;)) Only time I paint toes is Summer time when the old sandals come out. Hang on, Summer time? What the hell is that? Sigh.

    I like that color, Laura, but I wouldn't wear it. It's too bright for me.

    I have a nice silver color that I've been using topped off with a clear topcoat w/sparkles. Although, noone usually sees it as I next to never wear open toed shoes :-D

    Actually, I think that Zombie green is very fitting for me. :p

    Oooops! MajorGeek

    Not my nails either, lol.
    I was looking for a cheap variety of nail polish for my toes, but when I came across this colour I had to have it! It was difficult to work with as it's very thick and wouldn't stick to the nail at first, but now that it's on, it wears incredibly well!
    "Nicole by OPI A Lit-Teal Bit of Love"... "is a vivid blue foil with very small silver foil pieces that brighten the overall appearance of the color. I really like this one, but I find the name lacking! This is not a teal!"

    ...and before you know it the background will turn pink with sparkles and have fluffy bunnies :-D

    However, people still need geeks to fix computers and have gadgets. Perhaps there is a case for a fashion page for computer cases/chassises: http://boingboing.net/2011/05/16/frank-lloyd-wright-s.html

    My daughter never goes a day without it! She has that color but it's flat, not pearl. She has every color in the rainbow, I have pink, red, pale gold - about 10 shades of each.

    Did I mention that she is 5 and has painted her own toes since she was 3? Last night she put on a darkish blue and topped it with purple sparkle. I might be jealous, it looks really good. Maybe it's easier for her since she is so close to her toes and her hands are steadier than mine -- no coffee for her!

    I better touch up my pink color before I head out!

    Well, I missed the Nicole sale, but I did find a bunch of obnoxious colours on sale at the store last night! :-D I originally bought the fluorescent green for my niece, but I'm keeping it. LOL

    Are you revisiting your teens again, Beth?LOL ~ Okay, so it's not quite as funky as the algae green.:-D

    Nice!:) That looks just like my green. I keep meaning to bring mine out and take a pic. lol

    Sadly, no I didn't. I paid dearly for it (literally), when I realized the green would not go with my dress for the formal night. I had to pay the ship people for a pedicure. :cry Btw, I hate going for pedicures. I usually just do it myself.

    Oh lord, I didn't even think about it! Oddly, when I was a teenager and had umpteen fluorescent shirts (what WERE we thinking?!?), I never wore the nail polish. LOL

    I'm just now drying in front of the fan...today's choice is the teal, and what I didn't realize is that's it's kinda sparkly! Not only that, but I actually get to go out wearing sandals for once, so it's not just for me! :-D

    Laura, while I usually do my own, I do thoroughly enjoy getting the periodic pedicure. Theirs always looks a thousand times better than mine. :-o
