Verizon's Chocolate color palette getting bigger?
If neither white nor the original black are working for you, word on the street has Verizon and LG preparing two additional colors of their VX8500 Chocolate slider: red and green, putting a full them one third of the way to a lock on the primary color wheel. Though we don't have information on when the colorful duo will be released, we previously reported that we can expect the white variant before Thanksgiving, so if the intel is legit, it would stand to reason that these would come at about the same time.[Thanks, Tip]

Yeah these look photochopped the red one looks like a solarized or negative effect though I'd rock the green one if they were GSM. I dont hate verizon just thier whole flash based menu system and crippling of everything the phone originally had.

LG continues to copy Motorola. Now when a new MotoKRZR color appears LG is going to be like they are copying us again.

The chocolate may expand past white, black and pink... But that image is simply one picture of the Chocolate 4 times with three different effects in Photoshop. All are fairly simple... The white one for example is just the inverse (control-i) of the black model when it's duplicated (so the top layer is the phone that gets inversed and the bottom later is the original black bersion). The others are similar but with a hue/saturation colorize change.
