Leo Blanchette created the orange guy who is the "mascot" of WikiAnswers and many other sites. For more information about the orange guy look at the related link below.
Orange is a motif of WikiAnswers; this stems mainly from the Orange Guy, the WikiAnswers Community Mascot. However, depending on the primary contributions of a user, orange is not necessarily the most common color.
The images of the Orange Guy are free to use. However, if you edit them and claim that you created the Orange Guy, legal problems could follow.
The Orange Guy, not being real, cannot die. If, for some reason, the Orange Guy gets removed from WikiAnswers, a new mascot will likely be found.
WikiAnswers's logo is called the Orange Guy.
That's just the Orange Guy. He is our site's mascot. He was designed by Leo Blanchette. The Orange Guy was first used in a promo ad, and after that, he moved to a few awards and certificates.
For now, you cannot relink a different picture to your WikiAnswers account profile picture, but if you used a social networking site such as Facebook, your profile picture on facebook will be the profile picture replacing the orange guy on your WikiAnswers page. For an example, I linked my Yahoo email to my WikiAnswers account, and the picture I have on Yahoo will be the picture on my WikiAnswers profile (check it out if you want).

The Orange Guy is the site's mascot. He helps add to the fun of the site. He also draws attention to the site, helps generate good will, and is a recognizable symbol.
His name is actually Orange Guy. Just Orange Guy.
The Orange Guy is just our mascot. Consider this. Humans range from pale white to dark brown, yet the grass is green and the sky appears blue to humans. So if humans are not the same color as their planet, then why expect a fictional or alien person to be the same color as their world? Besides, if your profile page was orange, then the Orange Guy would be hard to see.
