i found the following text string in chloe.jpg (from the about.htm) tonight afer axons updated.

&'()*456789:CDEFGHIJSTUVWXYZcdefghijstuvwxyz

&'()*56789:CDEFGHIJSTUVWXYZcdefghijstuvwxyz

numbers letters, hidden in order in the file and repeated...and no way that's a coincidence.

AB KLMNOPUR are the missing letters.

 		I believe these have been there in the .jpgs all along, but I could be wrong, but there is new hidden text, thus far I have:

Quote:

danapicnic - beauty,

margaret - evil

BEEBACKG - am

bee2_margaretphoto - certain

BUTHONEY - am

BUTTHEHI - a

farnsworth-window - servant

bee_garden - queen,

smoker - doorway

langshivel - of


and oddly, from a langshivel that doesn't look corrupted:

Quote:

Living in a old castle
Playing hide and seek.

 		All I got myself
Obviously the 'an' can only come before 'again' or 'enemy'



verbs:
am, am, aging (adj?)

Nouns:
Certain (?) servant, beauty, evil (adj?), enemy, doorway, queen, girl

Pronouns:
I, I?

Adj
Certain (?). aging (?) little, evil (noun?)

Rest:
The, a, a, the, What, for, of, and, The

Punctuation: girl. I? What I beauty, queen,



so far I have...

I am
an enemy of a certain aging queen, and a little evil servant


What am I?

of course, that's all spec and 99% possibility that that's wrong.
I'm having problems fitting 'doorway' into this whole thing.

 		lookingglass.html
XETuseer came up with this:

http://www.ilovebees.com/lookingglass.html

that turns up this text on a page:


seek
seek
seek
behold:
Princess
grope:
seeker > !attach Princess

In your dreams!


fail

Does Her Majesty know you go trolling around the Castle sneaking kisses?


master sector > !init transmit proc
recurse

Work, work, work. How many relationships break up over it? You have to tell that woman you need more quality time.


master sector > !init transmit proc
that is the law and the whole of the law

Oh, very understanding of you, but if I were her, I'd be checking the scullery maids for bite-marks.


behold:
!analyze Princess
fail

That's because you have the brain of a cheap wristwatch.


!analyze Princess
fail

Can you tell me what "dumb as a sack of hammers" means?


!analyze Princess
fail

My point.


Seek the truth
Evade
Behold the truth
Escape
Reveal the truth
That is the law and the whole of the law

Why?


!analyze Princess
fail

You always go around saying that as if it meant something, but really it's completely made up.


That is the law and the whole of the law
reveal:
!transmit law > Princess

Don't even bother


fail

I mean, why not:
Seek balloons!
Behold balloons!
Reveal balloons!
That is the law, or at least 10/6ths of the law in this size!


!analyze Princess

Seek a train leaving Dockyard Station at 450 kmh
Behold a second train, loaded with cupcakes, approaching from the north at .28 c
Reveal a very messy accident with translight whipped cream potential


!analyze Princess

Seek just one friend in this huge dark lonesome Castle
Behold spindly-legged obsessive bloodsucking bug
Reveal flyswatter


!analyze Princess
splotch

OK, that was funny.


grope:
seeker > !attach Princess

Not that funny.


reveal:
Princess > seek

I don't know. Home, I guess.


Princess
seek >> home

Yeah. Except I don't remember it. Or really even know what it means.


!transmit
seeker > home

I guess we have something in common after all.


grope:
seeker > !attach Princess

You just don't give up, do you?


seeker > !attach Princess
recurse

Try kissing THIS, buster!


evade

 		Edit:

Bushman's Answer which makes more sense with the answer of LookingGlass.html:

I am an enemy of aging beauty, (People are saying just a general colloquialism)
the servant of a certain evil queen, (Snow White)
and a doorway for the little girl. (Alice)

I find it odd that not all three refer to "Princesess or Heroines."[/b]

not sure if this goes directly with it:
