when you open mr paris's pic in a new window you get this
http://www.livejournal.com/userpic/35138057/1868488
so doesn't that mean the pics been edited in photoshop?

What are we looking for? In the pic, I mean.

Also is that Pete Doherty in your av or just someone who resembles him? Very Happy

edit: I'm guessing from your location that it is ^^;;

Haha really? That's ace. I love the Libs and Pete, my gf does even more so.

Also yeah it's been edited in Photoshop. I didn't see the text tho, just the pic.

A lot of pictures end up through Photoshop at one point or another. It's just one of those things.

Sporky: In order to see the Ducky/Adobe words that puma was talking about, you have to view the jpg as a text file. At the very beginning of the file you'll see the words Ducky and Adobe. Most people looking at a Photoshoped photo for the first time always swear that the Ducky is a clue to something.

(new to the ARG world, hope this post helps somehow... Question

)

So I noticed that the words on gateway/5193.html, section iii after the first "Information Missing" are in some sort of pattern. Each sentence is made up of words which have descending letter counts.

(This has been posted before, but I don't think commented on)

Nothing exciting here, but just for completeness sake.

So while I was archiving the pages of VaporLofts since things seem to change so rapidly (and if anyone has a copy of the removed pages - lemme know), I noticed that the main banner of the index page was called vaporbanner2.jpg. Seeing if there was indeed more than 1 banner pic, I tried a few more names and found two other versions.

Neither appear to have any hidden messages in them (although vaporbanner.jpg seems to have some weird structure within the file - might just be the way it was created.)

"Eigenschaft" should be translated as quality or property and "Aufstellungsort" to the place of the exhibition.

Btw, I think you should all be aware of this.

Budeefly emailed Djingo Labbat aka Steven Mae and posted her response over in the Orbital Colony forum.

Mr. Labbat/Mae responded to her in a way that it would appear that he was affiliated with both games.

Luckily, the PMs of Orbital Colony saw this and sent their own email to Budeefly discrediting Mr. "Mae" (saying that a Hotmail address is not valid for their employees).

The chances are if this "person" is a troll trying to mess with OC then it is highly likely he is also a troll in VaporLofts and should not be believed. Until such time as we receive a clear cut message from Anne/post_system that he is who he says he is, please do not believe a word he says and try not to communicate with him. It will only encourage him more.

wondering if we're going to start any other threads for this game, or is it always going to be "an arg with potential"? i think it's pretty clear that this is a game. regarding the quote on the website "modern and progressive loft design" there is no atlanta living review that i could find. why don't we start organizing things a bit here?

here's more: they call themselves "Vapor, Inc.", but look at this:

http://www.vaporinc.com

wouldn't they have a company website as well as the atlanta project.
