I think it's a load of crap. I've read that NASA was concerned about getting the colours correct so they either put a colour chart in the computer's software or a physical colourcard on the rovers so they could use it as a colour correction if needed. Mind you, the sky on Mars wouldn't be blue. It's reddish due to the dust in the atmosphere so that could lend to some colour error. Besides, I've looked at Mars through my telescope. It is indeed red. There may of course be some pictures we will never be shown due to the US wanting to be first to find potential signs of past life on Mars.
Check out this neat Mars panorama site (you'll need the latest QuickTime)

It wasn't me either. But wasn't there something about the moon landing to that someone said never happened? I guess there are people that are always going to diminish certain accploshiments.

How does someone even think of things like this?...But here's a link, regarding the moon landing.

NASA painting mars red is a load a crap.
In regards to the moon landing being faked, also a huge load of crap. Here's a good link if you've any doubt about that.
