Chain/wordsearch.gif solved.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
A simple palett manipulation reveals the letters JRG and the .mp3 around the sides to be separate from the rest of the puzzle. http://thebalance.0nyx.com/JRG.mp3

Which says:

"JRG Marketing should be expecting a letter."

a solve for tsefof.jpg that was found last night and not posted:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

offset the image 250up and 250 left (or down and right)

Funk around with the colours and you'll see a string in the middle (actually, I don't, but I'm reliably informed that you can) that leads to:

http://thebalance.0nyx.com/a563b.htm

That trivially leads to:

http://thebalance.0nyx.com/email.mp3


Still need solves for:

Garrr. The second link doesn't work for me. And I would really like to know how the first page lead to the second page?


Ok the second link only works if I link to it from the first page. Very strange, Still can someone explain the solve above? How did you get from

to the next link?

The numbers are ASCII codes, to read it, hold alt, type the first number, let go of alt, hold alt, type second, let go of alt.... etc..

Yeah, that site doesn't seem to like me either.
Try doing stuff like adding www's, sometimes works for me.

Does seem a tad hit or miss, maybe its to discourage mp3 traders from using the free hosting Very Happy

Any chance it's clever coding to make sure you go through the steps of the solve? I've never had any problems?

I didn't have any problems with the mp3 link. For those who can't access it:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
A Mr G Wilson has an email address. He was born in 1954. I believe he is a Hotmail user. Perhaps he saw something.

Two things...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Mr G. Wilson's hotmail address is gwilson1954SPLAThotmail.com. No response from him as yet, and he's not been online that I've seen


Spoiler (Rollover to View):

pole.jpg leads to http://thebalance.0nyx.com/6433f.htm (reading letters on left from the bottom upwards, and on right from the top down). It's possible other combos will lead to other pages mind you? However, I was playing with anything that lined up with the "f.htm" on the right Smile

Ok in the chat we just solved the rest of pole.jpg.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

It's binary, using the white as one and the black as zero. This gives ASCII code for jaded.mp3

I seem to only be able to get to the .mp3 links by adding www. to the URL address. So try that.

I emailed that address early this afternoon and haven't received a response yet either. After the pace things have been moving at I'm surprised not to have heard anything by now. Smile
