That post is pretty derisive, given that the 'retarded' camera work gave you your little 15 minutes of fame in the first place.

It's a CSS script page so you can't trace the picture to a directory. Bah.

Nice one, n30n. That's funny stuff.

Thanks buddy.

I was quite suprised that nobody else tried it. I must really be awesome.

 

[stanr]

[Tlaloc]

you can just look at the css file in your browser, and then figure out where the image is located there.

edit: spelling.

Retarted in the sense that if they are going to give a community a 'puzzle' to figure out, then they should at least make sure they get a full photo of it.

lol i know, curse you merc.... thats twice youve done this!

 

[Mechagodzilla]

Didn't greg put the bird up as an example of ASCII art in a OT forum post here?

Also, could that HTML error be intentional? A code?

 

[glamhawk]

Are we supposed to figure out the second test by the first test??
Also, merc is a mole planted by valve.
