Whoops. Logging in would be good, I guess.

Actually I think Bagsbee is right. I see the shapes and the dots. Maybe this great black and white image of the orb that Addie created will make it easier to see the shapes.

I've uploaded both orb.jpg and the disk, with the light areas highlighted (with my l337 MS Paint sk1llz), and no matter how much I squint I can't make them match up. If this is a thing then I'll go for it, but I just can't reconcile it.

Scrivener, you are looking at the wrong shapes on the orb picture. Look at the black shapes. You can see the black creasent moon on the right side, the sun boat at the bottom and in the middle/lefthand side would be the sun or full moon.....but it is pretty much obscured by the large splash of paint.

I agree with bagsbee and dash, the background or orb.jpg is the nebra sky disk. The cresent moon (on the right) and the sun ship (curve near the bottom) match up almost perfectly. Some of the stars also match up and the chip on the upper left also match. The sun (or full moon) is totally obscure on orb.jpg though.

Personally, without 2.jpg, I never would've notice that the orange background of orb.jpg is supposed to be the nebra sun disk. Hell, even with 2.jpg, I didn't notice until bagsbee caught it. Good catch!!!
