...Looks like you're onto something here. But remember, TIMSMIT (if he's really who he claims to be), said that the left side needs to be mirrored.

I knew it all along, we all had it right the first time. It's as plain as the nose on your face.

Gwyneth Paltrow's head is in the Box.
Well...almost. My mind is coming up with two things: Barbra Streisand's hair, OR, a very tiny man in a trenchcoat, with the collar pulled up, standing in front of an explosion.

Enhance. Enhance. Enhance. Enhance. Enhance. En-- Catfight!

TL;DR I'm friggin' stumped.

This was color matched on JUST the cyan channel (00ffcf) although the magenta and aqua channels pretty much show the same thing, run at a fuzziness of 9, any less and you lose the image... anymore, and well something intersting happens... it appears to grow a horn, as in image 2... creepy.[/strike]

Maybe the clue is really U.I.U.

I'm gonna walk away for a few hours and come back fresh later. My brain is turning to mush right now.

I just joined, and saw the image, not sure if this has been said before but, do you think there could be a reference to The Legend of Zelda in there? With the three circles like a Triforce and the sword in the middle?
Sorry if it sucks, but I just wanted to say Hi and actually contribute Very Happy

Okay, dang it, I've been sucked into going into Photoshop and messing around.

The first thing I did was to mirror the entire image and overlay it at 50% opacity to see if anything popped up.

Then I noticed some strange things about the original, which just seem like sloppy graphic design, but who knows.

Biggest thing I noticed is that everything is slightly off-kilter. Mirror a duplicate of the image, and then place it in a layer @ 50% opacity. Nothing mirrors exactly. If you line up the lower sword exactly, everything else doesn't mirror up, if you line up the top sword, everything else doesn't line up. And the star, is totally not mirrored vertically, it's rotated slightly. It's not even centered around the center sword logos.

Sloppy graphic design???

I finally registered for the site, having to type in that damn verification code was annoying.

Anyway if you take the first letters from the available positions in the UEC, you can get morse iss / ssi / sis not sure if it's actually anything and i'm not proficient in morse code.

a poster asked for the myth of pandora from wiki: "After Prometheus' theft of the secret of fire, Zeus ordered Hephaestus to create the woman Pandora as part of the punishment for mankind. Pandora was given many seductive gifts from Aphrodite, Hermes, Hera, Charites, and Horae (according to Works and Days). For fear of additional reprisals, Prometheus warned his brother Epimetheus not to accept any gifts from Zeus, but Epimetheus did not listen, and married Pandora. Pandora had been given a large jar and instruction by Zeus to keep it closed, but she had also been given the gift of curiosity, and ultimately opened it. When she opened it, all of the evils, ills, diseases, and burdensome labor that mankind had not known previously, escaped from the jar, but it is said, that at the very bottom of her box, there lay hope."
