That's what I did - use the black and white edge pattern to create a mask in Photoshop and selectively move only what falls in the masked area.

As for putting the two images together and moving things, I started doing that but the image widths differ by like 10 pixels. There is matchup in the black and white patterns between the two though. I wasn't getting anything noticeable right off the bat, so I stopped for the time being.

We did something similar to what MrToasty describes - we had a selection of just those rows indicated in the black bars, and we'd intersect it with a rectangle of the proper width for our column, then use those to move the data around.

I'm doing that in Photoshop right now actually selecting several pixel rows and moving them all at once. Tedious no matter how you slice it because some of the slices are literally a single row of pixels. Even though the images are already done, I'm doing it as an exercise. My Tron Legacy Zen garden. I think I'll go blind for a little bit.

Yyyyyyyea, I started to work on them until I realized that I was starting to see double and gave up. My congradulations to you all and you have my admiration.

you know the more i look at these, the more i realize there are a CRAPLOAD of repeated elements in each of them. colors match up in certain "stripes" on the top and bottom and so forth. is there anyway any of that can be cleaned up into an original image? after that we may be onto something with Baudot.

Also AgentX thanks for the suggestion, I remember seeing that code on Coldplay's X&Y CD. But forgive me, I can't help but think you might be a ninja with that being your first post and being such a good suggestion. Just sayin!

You know, this is what I love about ARGs. I always come out learning things. I'd never even heard of Baudot code.

Would this help?

[sowasred2012]

It's occurred to me that the colour scheme isn't exactly the same, as I originally though, there's no grey in the schematics - BUT, looking at badhand77's image, it also apppears that the grey block are irrelevant, it never appears on it's own, always with a black and/or white block, so we can perhaps just assume the presence of a grey block when the image is cleaned up.

I'm still working through doing that myself, and it's quite painful so far - no idea when I'll get through it yet.

[Broklynite]

So what sotware are you folks using? I tried with photoshop and MS paint but it didn't go so well.

I don't think I have any software to help with this, but maybe i could use that key to decipher that image, perhaps......
