John was just on a minute ago so I know not of this... But you could just U2U him and ask Post ban if you are does not stop U2U's as far as I know

I haven't been post banned yet today.

Someone on another thread read a post that I had been banned but didn't realize the date was last January.

I am pretty sure I will make it through today without a ban.

Wow, so anyone have an idea of what that thing is, what it's doing and what kind of scale we're talking about for it?

I'm not sure on scale but if you look at a magnification of the purple one, you can see alot of additional details. it looks like a pipe system of some kind. whether fluid pipes or transport tubes, i dunno.

Ah.. you just posted as I did.

Thanks Armap I will give that a try

So I would suggest the hi-res image from the LPI original is closer to the actual appearance and is better viewed from the full size copy or from the tiff I have, however I have no way of hosting the tiff.

nope, the purple one is better. the gray tone one has been altered. they both have interesting details, though. for example, the big .jpg you have on image shack or whatever, has been altered from the one john lear has. there's an anomalous area around the big black crater that we started to call the space port. from the space port, emerges what looks to be a contrail attached to a flying thingamagig. in your version, the thingamagig has been deliberatley obscured.


what you've done is provide a wonderful example for comparative analysis, between one version of the same image and another. i can't wait to hear what john has to say about it. he's gonna love that.

Sure you do... just email it to me and I will post it on Pegasus... if its to big send it with yousendit.com they handle up to 100 megs free

Given that they were using a 70mm Haselblad they should have a lot more detail in, when I compare them to the low res catalogue examples there is very little difference, as if they were just bigger versions.

Told you I did , yes? Hmmmm?

Jack ordered some too... they were just jpeg save as .tiff

It puzzles me why they left this anomaly though.

Well as ArMaP said it looks like someone tying a knot... seeing as Johns was printed years ago, could this have been left in looking like a string on the scanner?



I will take a look to compare them, but it will have to wait a few days
