Well, the sun looks exactly like the colors it releases. The odd thing for me is this. Why is it that the sun would appear yellow, which could only mean that it is releasing primarily yellow light (as far as the visible spectrum goes), but the Earth isn't pretty much yellow? I think the answer lies in the fact that all those yellow images of the sun are basically just filtered down before the camera gets to take a snapshot.
However, it is more yellow than anything to the best of my knowledge.
To know for certain, let's check some astronomy web sites.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
