Game Hint #1

[Bomberofdoom]

Has anyone tested the Axis camera and it's quality?

'Cause we might be struck this year by FISH EYE LENS.


Eh?





.


I still vote for water game. Everyone said 2009 will be water. Why shouldn't it?

Original file was opened up on a graphics computer at FIRST in Photoshop and then just re-saved at PS default compression of 8. Specifically in PS CS3 on a Mac.

That's why it is different.

Thanks for the clarifications. That rules out any super-secret embedded data...

the odd thing is that the FIRST picture was created: dec 3 08 19:56

the one on the website was created: dec 4 08 at 16:29

how was FIRST's created before?

I propose that the text in the background is the paragraph that is under the heading "Morphology"

I think "morphology" is the key word here.

M01e, what are you thinking about? Can you expand a little on why you think morphology is a key word?

Everyone is thinking about different things and exploring different things. Later when things settle down, folks will go back over the thread and re-read it. Plus, this thread is going to grow and grow and grow for a few hours, perhaps, days. I paid attention to what you wrote the first time and looked up morphology. It's interesting.

The one on the FIRST site was uploaded to the site @ 7:56pm last night - No shock.

You downloaded the one off the other website to your computer today about 15 minutes ago - again no shock.

Real Opah Fishin'!

Morphology I think leads to the word morph or change. That our robots are going to change to fit into places of something like that. I have a feeling that our robots will have to change in order to do something. Though I like what some of the others have came out with. I'm looking up a video where they showed the camera's video.

would be cool if we had to dress and cook the fish too

Btw, since this same image was found on a site with the title moonfish1.jpg, (moonfish.jpg without the "1" from the same site shown below in my signature btw - lol) maybe it has some kind of relevance to the moon's configuration this past Monday?

Anyone else see that Monday night?
I thought it was odd enough to notice, & it was kinda cool.
But what could it mean in the clue world of FIRST?

The fish is an opah. Opah is close to Oprah. My guess is that Ms. Winfrey kicks off the game!

[The_M01e]

Opah = Moonfish

same fish.
