My theory is, that image says..

Thank You

aaci.org

pertaining to a reciept from a donation.

Which I'd presume you would do from the donate page of aaci.org http://aaci.org/give.htm

If someone could print out the 112798.jpg and cut out the white spaces, overlaying that page and maybe the message will be there?

I would do this myself, but my printer doesn't work. Sad

Actually going horizontally I can say for sure that some white spaces don't line up. In the orange area behind the fans there's a white spot to the right of the left-side fan that only shares half of a row with the white space two over. There's likely other instances, but that was the first I noticed with my eye that I checked in Photoshop just to make sure.

I have no idea if any touch vertically, but I thought I'd point that out.

Sounds like you've probably got the message. However, overlaying the image doesn't work, as some of the strips are too thin.

They could be for punctuation

It's all about scaling, what resolution do you view the text, and how large do you print the image... ? :/

Well, to keep things all the same I'm simply overlayed the 112798 image over the "Give" part of the site in Photoshop and by changing the opacity it makes it REALLY easy to see the white spaces and move the layer around to see which letters it could cover. Some things...

- It's tough to say if really any of the spaces are adequate to fit particular letters.

- The width of the white spaces goes far beyond that of the Give site.

- The height is also much greater.

I'm thinking this is the wrong path Wink

Looks like part of a DNA sequence to me... the "holes" arent consistant enough to be a punch card, and its too complicated to be a barcode... but DNA.... yep... i think its DNA.

Maybe we're reading too much into it? Perhaps the answer is right in front of our noses?

I think we should check a little more into the DNA sequence theory

also, the white spots and the pic HAVE to have something to do together, maybe we shouldn't only look at the white spots :p
