Code:

var/colorlist = list("Blue" = rgb(0,255,0) ,"Red" = rgb(255,0,0) )
mob/var/color = rgb(255,255,255)
var/icon/I = new(mob.icon,mob.icon_state)
var/oldcolor = mob.color
var/newcolor = pick(colorlist)
I.SwapColor(oldcolor,newcolor)

Problem description:It keeps giving a bad icon proc error and returning something about the colors being used in swapcolor, though returning colors not even used.

runtime error: bad icon operation
proc name: SwapColor (/icon/proc/SwapColor)
source file: ,0
usr: Dpheonix7 (/mob/PC)
src: /icon (/icon)
call stack:
/icon (/icon): SwapColor("Dk Blue", "White")
/datum/menu/colorselect (/datum/menu/colorselect): Execute(Dpheonix7 (/mob/PC))
Dpheonix7 (/client): Center()

First it was 254,4,4 being changed, that is red, not blue. The oldcolor var is ment to save what the rbg was before the swap. Dk Blue = rgb(0,0,83). Now I did choose white in the list. It does appear that it's returning text and not the rbg that I want.

Dpheonix7	Second problem was found. I was able to make it swap colors but now the mobs vars are icon = icon_state = first state When I try to edit the icon_state nothing happens.
