It's an AR glyph... i crossed my eyes far enough to roughly see two sides of it in half..... but not together.... i'll print it out tomarow to get a better look. (I love these things)

Actually if you print it out, fold it 7 times and hold it up to the light, you can see a very faint IP address.

I just looked at the 719 Hz red and blue image with some special glasses. I can't really see anything that stands out in particular

Just a bit of humor.

Anyway, I tried a bunch of different scanners on the static file. I tried 3 different autostereograph programs and got zilch.

I tried a couple of steganography programs that said zilch.

I also tried to layer the image used for flashing lines over the static image and nothing. The two files are different sizes sizes and I tried them native and resized.

If there is something hidden in the static page, then I think there is something we need to find that we haven't yet been given to decode it.

Did anyone pull the files from screensaver 1?

I know it was humor.... I guess mine came off wrong... anyway I think screensaver1 got made backwards....... covie ships going backwards is odd.

maybe we should convert the static image to sound, with an app similar to this:

kinda like a reverse of 719hz.wav, that is if the static is anything

To me, this looks like what the MC could be watching when he leans over that thing at the end of the Halo 3 E3 Trailer. At first I thought it was Cortana going rampant because of the sad music. Well, the above picture looks like it could be the thing he is viewing. What do you think?

I'm on deck with Bruce. one type is two images slightly offset, the other is one image with two slightly offset graphics imbedded in "static", In either case you can see two disctinct images. Each eye focuses on a seperate image and the result is 3d. Both work from the same principle, and In every magic eye I have ever seen it is pretty simple to make out outlines of shapes with the naked eye. 3d glasses won't do it, it's all in greyscale. The glasses work similarly, the blue side filters all but the red, and vice versa, allowing each eye to focus on a seperate slightly offset image. The only trick left that I can think of would be red glasses of the right wavelength. Like the old secret decoders in cereal. Problem is with those you can usually make out the image/text with the naked eye as well. I'm convinced it's "noise" without signal.

Beezlebub (sp?) had something going that sounded a little interesting though.
