But people are also seeing skulls, Order symbols, etc. Everyone seems to be seeing something different, AND seeing what other people are telling them is there.
And lets stop the Gemma looks/substance stuff, as beautiful as she is its off topic 
Someone in another thread posted that there could be a connection between the "Nut Kills Man" game that Gemma had described and Nut, one of the symbols in the pictures. It may be like how the Order teaches children that OpAphid means something different than what we know it means. Here is some info on Nut, Goddess of the Sky and all Heavenly Bodies. It has interesting references to protection, motherhood, the stars (remember the email that was sent to Ziola) and death:
| Quote: | Nut was the goddess of the sky and all heavenly bodies, a symbol of resurrection and rebirth. According to the Egyptians, the heavenly bodies would enter her mouth, traverse her skies and be reborn with dawn out of her womb. A sacred symbol of Nut was the ladder, used by Osiris to enter her heavenly skies. This ladder-symbol was called “maqet” and was placed in tombs to protect the deceased, and to invoke the aid of the god of the dead. She was the sky goddess, in contrast to most other mythologies, which usually have a sky father.
In myth, she originally lay eternally having sex with Geb, but Shu (the air) later separated them, and it was said that if she ever returned to that position, chaos would reign (because the world was the bit that existed between the two).
Nut was thought to be the barrier separating the forces of chaos from the ordered cosmos in the world. She was pictured as a woman arched on her toes and fingertips over the earth - her body, a star-filled sky. |

ok this is probably overkill but I managed to pull the pictures apart a bit and overlay them and I was actually pretty suprised at the outcome. I went into this thinking that we were overthinking everything but after I merged teh images together.....well its pretty shocking....see for yourself.

Well, guys, I put the two pictures together, and it doesn't seems to help much.

look at the little extension on the top of the 7...
the 76, when looked at from a different angle, as Bree says women (*cough* Tachyon) do, becomes 94:

I think that it may be best if a Operator split this thread: one for discussing the pictures and one to discuss the note. It will stop any confusion and allow for both to be discussed more in depth.
But none are logged on right now... |

Not sure if this has been pointed out, but do any of you see a person lying down here?

I'd split it up slightly differently. The note and the unambiguous symbols on the pictures should go together in one thread, as these are related. Analysis of the background image should go in another thread. IMO. |

Just a suggestion. Would it be possible to put the images in this thread? Maybe the first post?
The other thread which appears to be only for numbers and the note begins with the images and the info about the images. It might be helpful to have that info here.
Anyway, I am messing around and thought I'd post this:

If a file is not text and is saved as a particular format it cannot be opened with another exstention. So, a jpg is a jpg is a jpg
