Actually I wasn't the one that found the passwords, I sent the image to a friend who is into all sorts of things some would perceve as taboo and he dug things up from other websites. Thats why I put everything in spoilers. I can go back and edit my post to remove the info if you wish though.

no, i realize you put it in spoilers, and I'm thankful. it doesn't so much bother me as it seems that it takes the fun out of the game for you guys playing it.

so we have 3 cities now. I put them on a map, and they seem to be located in the same relative locations as the points on a diamond. I'll wager that the last reveal will be a city in New Mexico. (I haven't tried to pinpoint the center of the diamond which they form on a map.)

Spoiler Image in following link.
http://www.imagedump.com/index.cgi?pick=get&tp=470196
Thats what we get.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Weird pixel art.
I tried inverting colors in photoshop, putting multiple copies of the image together in different patterns and stuff like that.
No luck.
The file is a .gif, no Info I can find in it. (but im not a super pro in photoshop) it's not verctor graphics, so cant zoom in indefinately
The source code looked clean at the time Ifound it.
I dunno.
Random thought ..
In a 3d software program, this could be used as some sort of elevation map or bump map. (allthough a not very detailed, primitive map)
Maybe it's related to the Cartographer hint we got a while back?
Maybe it fits within the diamond shape...
then again. maybe not

passwords don't seem to work. I don't see a button for enter. So I tried pushing enter on my keyboard. Nothing. I know that I am doing somthing wrong.

don't copy/paste the passwords.
click in the pw field to get a cursor and type them.
You don't need to press enter.

Askr, in another forum gave us this for the Binary theory:
01011011000100011100011001001000110100011111111100011111 - in binary, black = 0, white = 1. In decimal it is: 25633766203588383.
10100100111011100011100110110111001011100000000011100000, black = 1, white = 0. In decimal it is: 46423827834339552.
Not sure where to go from there.

separated, with black=0 and white=1
91 17 198 72 209 255 31
black=1, white=0
164 238 57 183 46 0 224
I tried ascii characters, but nothing coherent came up
