[PUZZLE] CGW April 2006

I have just purchased an online copy and it has an article about Perplex City
In the article it has the following hidden text

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
AHINTISCLOSEBY


I guess this might be the answer they are looking for!

On the opposite page it has the Cognivia advert with a picture of a maze like brain.

No obvious signs of other puzzles apart from a solveable brain maze on the Cognivia advert

Link to answer page http://www.cognivia.com/testing/

Be quick with this one because they are looking for 100 correct answers

I shaded in all the areas that you could get to from the start of the maze and it gave an image that looked a lot like a:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

elephant


which is what I submitted as my answer, but I didn't notice the bolded letters on the first page (schoolboy error), so I'm not sure whether there's something else that I missed!

Just reading from the Cognivia page
Quote:
If you've successfully completed the puzzle on our Earth CGW advert


It suggests that the answer must be on the advert but hey I put the bold text as my answer! (Mentioned above)
So this is not really on the advert.

Any chance of posting that pic of the
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
elephant

How much of a likeness cos there is a short solution to the maze[/u]

And can I just point out that the first paragraph of the article is wrong - we saw the plane in Manchester but then went to the pub for a couple of pints, and then we sauntered (there certainly was no franticness about it) to an internet cafe.

And it does look like an elephant - here's an annotated version using my exceptional paint skills.
