I absolutlely thin that it is revelant as either a clue in itself or to set an order of things.....

I am so not a graphics person, but there is def a second image under the TL image.

here it is inverted. Does anyone know how to seperate them or fade the top one out? And does the fact that it is a .png rather than a jpeg or gif file matter?




Here's an article about this thread: http://www.argn.com/archive/000620be_good_tanya_and_you_might_just_discover_something_supernatural.php

Moon + Dean = Mountain?

There is a Burrells Ford campground in Georgia in or near the Blue Ridge mountains. If that is a Ford in TR, TL looks like a swirl which rhymes with "Burrells". Wow I'm really stretching, aren't I.

EDIT: I do believe that is a picture of a barn behind the swirl, for what its worth.

Ok, if you are really intent on seeing the background image, how's this? Better?

BL picture looks like Mercury.

http://www.spa3.k12.sc.us/WebQuests/New%20Planet%20WebQuest/mercury.html

Still don't know what it means.

Edit: Ford Mercury?

Back to lurking.

Great job, jpf721!

Tanya has updated her journal, now with speculation clues!

http://searchin4.livejournal.com/5624.html

She calls the place in the top left a ranch and says the picture doesn't look like the moon, as we now know it's not.

She also sez that we have one day, as she's moving on...
So here are thoughts:
Per "jpf721" the planet is Mercury. (nice freaking catch, BTW)
Found this image: http://www.spa3.k12.sc.us/WebQuests/New%20Planet%20WebQuest/mercury.html, which is identified as Mercury. The car appears as though it might be a mercury as well. So we have:
Ranch Mercury
and
Mercury Dean?

Ok, here goes, posted as a comment on her blog:
Quote:
Ok, so I was teasing this out and think that I may have found something for you. We've got a Ranch, a mercury car (thanks to JPF721), the planet mercury, and James Dean. Here's my hunch:
http://www.roadsideamerica.com/attract/TXAMAcadillac.html
Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo Texas. You see, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band has a song called "Cadillac Ranch" that mentions "James Dean in Mercury '49".
This leaves me two questions:
1) Perhaps will this get you closer to 'Dean'?
and
2) Why the heck were you lead to Savannah?
God luck - Stay Safe...

EDIT - Crap, my credit to JPF came out in the wrong spot. Curses. Try to do a nice thing... Hopefully I'm completely wrong Embarassed

okay, another site update at searchin4.
Here's what I get from adding the missing letters (ones I added in bold). I can't figure out the second sentence for the life of me.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
WHere are you?

Nes isnt Coming greAt.

VacaTion is great Cant wait to see you aroUnd laTer on this month.

Make sure tO walk the dog and check the car.

Okay, looks like we're scrambling things up, and that being the case, we probably were looking for a song.

Good catch, richardemoore.

I was kind of waiting for the phone message to loosen things up, and since it came without a song...

I parsed the text message a little differently than you did:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
WHere are you? NeWs isnt Coming greAt. VacaTion is great Cant wait to see you aroUnd laTer on this month. Make sure tO walk the dog and check the car.


That second sentence is cumbersome, but by anagramming the letters left out, I get at least one possible relevant message:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
WATCH OUT C (If "isnt" is actually "is nOt", then it could be "OC" or "CO" instead of just "C"


I figure the last line is an actually instruction for what Tanya should do when she arrives.

Alright, via http://srsfolklore.livejournal.com/ another audio clue. Teasing it out now. Sounds like multiple parts: Reverse, slow, fast...
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

REVERSED
Female Voice: we're looking for her sister. We can't leave any loose threads.
Male voice: how far away is she?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Slowed to 1/2 of normal and pitch shifted down by 12 steps:
Female: {Two/Few} towns over. She won't escape.
Male: {unintelligible}

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Double speed and pitch shifted up:
Female: Who do you think you are, Mulder?
Male: I hate you.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

This last bit is repeated three times, was reversed, sped, all sorts of crap. Trust me on this.
Male: Where are you going to meet {me/her}?
--this voice is slowed wayyy down and dropped in pitch below the male line above, but it sounds like the same voice, and... You're not going to believe this, it sounds like it says "Fox Reality".

Final Bit:
{electronic boop}
Female: Who let you out, little twink?
----
Where I was confused I bolded the option I prefer.
