Likely aries or something simmilar.

 		Yeah, I've been looking at the site.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The out of place symbol is for aries


Not sure how that helps yet. Checked for neptune in that sign, but short of really relearning astrology nothing immediate opped up as a connection, for me at least.

 		wow, nice solves guys. In looking at the cubes....
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

It says 'tesseract' around the outer edge. That's another name for a hypercube (4-d cube) the thumbs up is where the c should be.... what's that mean? I dunno. Smile


edit: also a hypercube has 8 cubes in it... which is what we have.

Maybe we need to match up the fonts and use the first letter of the font name to find the message. I don't have time to do it at the moment.

 		ok this one, don't even know where to start... the t is used twice to spell tesseract in wingdings.

The border of the image is basically a 2D representation of a tesseract (see image below). But the insides are missing.

so where do we go with this?

 		ok, well on the assumption that the fonts may be important, I've identified all but one:

t - Elephant
E - Edwardian Script
S - ???
S - freestyle script
E - Showcard gothic
R - Tempus Sans
A - Edwardian Script
C - wingdings

not sure what to do with it yet. may try anagramming....
