Vase is the last thing I think of when I see these pictures. I am seeing a space shuttle before I see a vase :?

the second paragraph is definitely "WHAT"

we got the poem guys!
she's telling us we were correct

look at the first line, i can almost clearly read "the evil priest" the last word on that sentence also looks like "bed" -- we definitely got it

probably not much help, but i noticed that the camouflage scratchings (most visible in the blue channel) repeat vertically every 481 pixels or so, as shown in this image. it might help clearing up some parts of the text. although there aren't many parts where there is an scratchings-only section to correspond with a text-and-scratchings part.

anyhow,

just wanted to see if anyone looked at the "name" of the image: 4jb3. Could that be something (JOB 4:3) or is that something one of the programs automatically creates (ie, not human controlled)?

dead end. It's automatically created. Cassie has no control over it.

the funny thing is that our red clue page looks almost like the second picture on this link. Cassie might have been an art student!

Bosquelito -- you posted this link on the other thread, but were you talking about the image of a woman that appears halfway down, under The Ephrata? Something about it reminds me of the "vase" image:

If you're talking about:
Illustration 5 - Woodcutting of an Ephrata Sister's costume. Accessed on March 20, 2005, from http://www.ephratacloister.org/History/history.html

I hadn't noticed it. There is some similarity, but it doesn't exactly match up. Any thoughts, you guys?


And yeah, the dotted red image from Didonna,
http://www.geocities.com/wntltiacnet/ar ... donna.html

reminded me quite a bit of the image that's sitting on top of the poems.

Looking at the layout of the test on the left and the "vase/urn" on the right....

the "vase/urn" matches up to the line "The picture has not yet commenced"
Any thoughts on that?

I agree. It's not quite right but the face at the top and the general shaped just seemed very similar to me. Maybe it matches up with another version of this? Probably a stretch but...

need something that has a color or shading difference as well. Unless there was additional editing down to the photos *shrug*
But yeah, the shape is interesting

*looks at lordgreystoke for a comment*
