Sorry I should specify the lowercase 3z was found on the Hillsiode photo, not the Orb photo.

On the hillside photo, Defintly looks like a 3 followed by a lowercase cursive z. 3z

Hi frayed1,
I cant get your pics to open when i get redirected. I have MSN.

Ok, guys......
maybe it will work this way. Sorry to be such a ditz... can I blame it on my relic of a computer???



well, at least I can see it.

The circle is a magnifying lens effect. I wanted you to see the overall pic, so I didn't want to crop it. I got this by altering the hue and saturation levels. Why or what it might mean....I have no idea.

look what you found, wow,
makes my "33", nothing,
is that a "gif bar" or a game bar or somthing?
looks kind like any # of bar all multi-medea use???

That is some kind of revelation, the key. If you apply the same technique to the rest of the document does anything else come up? What about in the 417/333 pixel using the same technique?

Frayed1 - what were the values you used to get the image ?

Hey them clouds in frayed pic look like continents.

See what country is at coords 333/417

Helen,

I can't be sure, I was using a slider bar in the hue and saturation window, and I had my eye on the preview window--actually looking at another part of the photo, when I noticed the image that had immerged further down. It didn't seem to be tied to one value, I will try it again and watch for a more 'exact moment of change.'

It was also a good bit off from the 417/333 pixel area, location wise.

It actually looks sinilar to the area of the Mediterranean Sea but tilted a bit. Has someone been able to check and sea which country falls on either set of pixels?

I've been trying to 'recreate' the conditions I had when I first noticed the key. ( I had been trying to get a better look at something on the hillside behind, and when I zoomed out I first noticed the 'key')

In coreldraw, in my effects menu, I used the color adjustment hue, saturation, light window. When I change the saturation to a positive 30 with the other two settings still at 0, I begin to see the key in a gray color. If the sat. is moved on to around 70, it becomes plainer, but still gray. Changing the other two settings doesn't make much diff, unless I go too dark. I also tried corel paint, getting much the same result, also by using the selective color-gray adjust, and reducing the black.

The sky still went green, but I didn't get the colors on the key again--so I must have done some thing else before I saw the key.....maybe the solarize effect or the invert....it was late, my head hurt....

Photo shop might arrive at it differently, give it a try.

With zero at the lower left, the key begins at pixel 288,82 to 96
( 14 H x 39 L )
With zero at the upper left, the key begins at pixel 288,-385 to-399

I had no luck getting it with Photoshop. Its interesting that the tip of the key points to the 417/333 coordinates. I can't determine what the map on the top may be.

As the deadline gets closer, i'm just posting some image comparisons to see what others think.



I reckon one could re-arrange the pixels to make both "keys" match using the main highlights.

Sorry for not crediting the members who spotted these.
