subject tells you theres some strange lines... is it something to do with CS or something hidden?

What about the coordinates from yesterday that lead to a volcano in Africa? I'll try to layer some of those on top.

kk thanks any one else have any ideas?
they dont appear to be splits...

EDIT:Although the lines are moveable i recordere their original cords

left intersection (1st Intersection):
X:5.208
Y:5.917

Right Intersection (2nd Intersection):

X:10.611
Y:5.917

EDIT2: the cords on Gmap lead to:

1st Intersection: somewhere in nigeria

2nd Intersection: another place in nigeria

What I find more interesting, is the way the glyph is layed out on this image.. The circle at the top, the odd configuration of one of the intersecting lines.. As if it is targeting earth.

If this image is legit, it can't be targeting Earth... we don't have an imaging device far enough away to make the image.

However, if this is fake, then anything is fair game.

I don't know about the guide lines, but this star image makes me wonder if those coordinates were azimuth/altitude instead of lat/long?

Huh. Polaris is basically around 0° to 1° azimuth (true north is where the azimuth line is drawn), and is generally around 34° altitude. 1°12' by 34°53' is right in that area. Interesting coincidence. ;-)

ok i know people have found out the ruler guides when you open the file in photoshop.
but when i was browing the forum...i got the message that there were only 3 blue guides. making crosshairs on the image...
Did anyone know that there is a fourth? running along the bottom of the page?
...its hard to see because it runs along the bottom edge...
but essentially it makes a square.
perhaps people already know this.
If so, i just want confirmation..
if not...then we should look into this.

I noticed it, but didn't think anything of it...


Perhaps that was a mistake on my part?
