Quote - Shakespeare from The Winter's Tale

Let's begin with the quote:

Quote:
I see this is the time that the (unjust) man doth thrive


So, the word unjust has been left out, from The Winter's Tale, spoken by Autolycus. Perhaps the unjust files ...

What else have we got ... a magnifying glass, sheet music to identify, and I'm not sure what the brown object is.

Niiice, action! Smile

And another missing word: unjust.

The quote is from Shakespeare's Winter's Tale and should be:

"I see this is the time that the unjust man doth thrive"

The music notes make me think of Wongmo's site. Like the boxes reminded us of little-boxes.net. Just a thought.

What could the thing in the back be? It looks almost like a barometer?? I cannot place the text ending in "..NDS" though... LANDS?

Background object

I'm thinking along the same lines ... an instrument of some kind with a dial ... up close I guess. A barometer would certainly follow the weather theme set by silvia's 'not a thunderstorm' comments.

You can't know what notes those are because we don't know the cleff.

(My first post... hee!)

Anyway, I think that's a "W" or "M" that the magnifying lens is magnifying.

Hmm... I'm thinking more along the lines of a stopwatch in the background...

Soooo.... assuming this follows the same pattern as before, we should be ablo to get an URL, username, password and "base" filename.

The last one we've got, "unjust".

It would seem almost logical that the URL would be the newly discovered www.thenekodas.com, as it is strongly related to music... next step would be the subdirectory.

So, username and password, and we're off to "[PUZZLE] The unjust-files" Wink

The username is probably Autolycus, since he is the one saying the quote.

Oh and also, the filename is 00000011.jpg, or "3".

I'd like to see anyone make a fitting theory based on those filenames now Sad
