Default Need some pics of Spark Plugs

Would like to get some pics if anyone has some of their spark plugs and what they think is a good looking burn pattern...Mine tend to be very lightly colored brown on the porcelin and clean on the strap and electrode....I always thought you wanted a solid tan on the porcelin and clean on the rest. When I say clean of course I mean no melting or metal specks....I am getting a dark tan at idle and the light tan after a W.O.T run and quick shutdown. Some people different plugs run different colors...I am running a RS12YC Champion plug. No shavings or melting on the strap or tip just CLEAN.....Should I just keep jetting the secondaries richer till I loose some speed or what...Seems like lots of opinions on this and wheather the plug reading is even reccomended anymore....

Your WOT plug color sounds perfect to me. Idle readings have nothing to do with jetting and it sounds good also.
