I didn't have anything that suggested the arrow was a letter. Did I miss something?

Yes, you did miss something. The arrow stands for the letter "W".

Very Cool, thank you. Where was this posted at? I'm only familiar with this site and /x/ x is hard to follow though, do to it's nature.

You're welcome. It was posted on page 37. Personally, I wouldn't recommend you to visit /x/ if you want reliable information on this topic. They have already given out false informations. This thread seems to be the best place if you want your knowledge to be up-to-date.

Dooooh! that makes more sense now. I remember seeing the "Fiiiiiiinally got the image embeded!" words, and the large space, but the image never loaded.

By the way, do you have any idea how these images help us to get to the solution? We might be able to translate the words written on it, but I think we are far from understanding what all that means and how it relates to 8𠖥1.

One note about that letter chart: the symbol for P is written a bit wrong. The stroke going up to the right should be straight and at about a 45 degree angle, sort of like the upper half of the letter K. Perhaps that error is why some people came up with "SINNED" in the new picture instead of "PINNED". Also, we can now add the symbol for Y to that chart. I suspected it before, but the new message confirms it.

Yes, I've noticed that too. Maybe the original creator will update this letter chart. Also, the statement about the purple letter "Also shown in purple is the mark above the "E" which must be a diacritic indicating a double letter [...]" has proven to be right, because when replacing the "?" in "VERY FR?", the result is "VERY FREE", which is a valid possibility.

 		Stoning theory
What about the stoning theory which was previously proposed? To me the image resembles a depiction of someone about to be stoned.

Some people might find the following image disturbing. I tried to embed it within a spoiler but wasn't sure about the result...
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aPOTXRkzSyw/TMSBsauT5UI/AAAAAAAAACE/nHtUPYXFHXc/s1600/stoning21.jpg

Don't know what the box-like objects represent, though. Could those images be sketches for a modern art installation which tries to catch people's attention about women's lack of rights around the world?

 		In the morning of August 3rd, Aquila directly west on the horizon. At least in Texas. Could be important.

 		Hi guys, been following this for quite a few days now. What if the manequin represents Belle? Whenever we open the 8-3-11.info page we see a picture of her and hear a sound that comes from a radio (from the conet project). What if the radio we appear to see inside the manequin is just that? A represemtation of Belle?

Here is the revised CONVERT TABLE. (Sorry,I just noticed that i omitted "ND" between "ST" and "RD"). Some of the glyphs in the previous version were a bit off due my attempt to "create" their glyphs from the alphabet as written in TopDown.jpg. Now I think thats useless and largely moot since only three letters are missing from the alphabet. Can we assume that there are 26 letters and 10 digits? Does the number sign or "ST-ND-RD-TH" count as one of the 38? Does the diacritic for double letters count as one of the 38?



By the way this, I think. confirms the derivation of CONVERTABLE since the V and K have been confirmed.
See this

 		yes, shaggy, that sounds very, very plausible. ya'll we are dealing with the stars, sacred geomerty, triangle, sun, prophecy. do ya''ll think they are saying they intercepted a signel thru a radio tower regarding august 3rd when elenin enters perigree? makes sense. they are the jay birds screaming a warning and they will be cast stones at if they come right out and say it. they know they would be "mocked" and laughed at. just a theory.... belle could be the symbol for what they named the radio they are hearing things on. aslo, yes elenin is a rock casting or hurtling thru space and we need to be prepared for our power grids to be affected.

 		Hello guys! I am new to the forums and to ARG in general. (Just signed up today because I am following the Test Subjects Needed ARG) This one really caught my interest, I was wondering (before I read all 40+ pages in this topic) since they aren't taking more applications, it's pretty much too late to get involved, right? I did read a little bit and saw some Houston references.... I am in that area.
