I've often wondered what a REAL lightsaber would look like. For example, would it have a white core at all? It's still a cylinder of light, so I figure it might be all colored light, or almost all white with just a slight hint of color. With the ones we see, especially in the PT (with ROTS being the worst in some cases), it's like we're only seeing half of the light column. It's like a layer cake, but you don't see the layers until you cut a piece away. Hard to explain what I'm getting at... I sometimes wish I knew more about the ways light worked in those sorts of situations. Haha.
Oh, and it seems to me that the pics with George and C-3PO are completely different, not a Photoshopping of it. It looks like different angles to me. I'd say they're just two different pics with the same setup.
