Light Blue or Sky Blue. You guys sure have a lot of time of your hands, huh?

why, that’s #BCC6E1 of course.

It’s a light purple, not to be confused with the light blue you use in your focused form inputs.

It is indeed a global concensus…
淡紫色, lavendel, lavande, Lavendel, lavanda, ラベンダー, 라벤더, лаванда, lavanda

I would describe it as a desaturated blue.

That’s light blue. Not enough red to be light purple.

It’s the color of an early autumn morning, crisp with the scent of dew and dying leaves on the breeze. or maybe grey-ish blue?

Lt. Blue on my Samsung LCD, but on my Apple CRT it has a hint of purple, but very light. Either or, I would still call it Lt. Blue. (Sorry Steve.)

Really, unless we’re living in bizarro world this is a light blue.

The ? is the color we’re asking about.
