 		Picture ordering
A chronological ordering of the pictures seems useful, though I'm not sure what for yet.

One possibility:
6 - the camera's pointed out the window and being rotated to...
5 - note her glasses are still on
2 - she's working, everything normal
7 - she sees something interesting, takes off her glasses for a closer look
3 - leaning in
4 - close up
9 \
1 > not sure of order here, she's fiddling with the camera.
8 /

Or it could go in reverse order, maybe.

Who has the last pictures?

 		dana has been "seen"
From the blog: "It saw me. It knows me now. "

And then we start seeing pictures of dana. The pictures are named "killer". So, if ladybee777 is taken over by the Queen, it has now seen the real life Dana. It has also named the real life Dana as "killer" - this has probably to do with the fact that Dana is trying to reupload the original website.

Anyway..

 		So what you're saying is that the AI has been making pictures using Dana's webcam, and then she found out that something weird was happening, and we can actually see her reaction to all of this in a chronological fashion ? That's an interesting idea, but what could it lead to ? Is Dana still responding to e-mails, and if yes : has anyone tried asking her whether other hardware/software on her PC has been acting up ?

 		Dana == the killer
I'm saying that Dana is the "killer", and that the AI will try to remove her. And yes, I'm saying that the AI has taken control over her webcam. Look at the images, they dont seem to be stuff that Dana would have taken herself. One of the images sees Dana studying the camera as if something is wrong with it.

 		Two more
Ok, I found two more "killer" images. I'm in too much of a rush to decode the text in them, so could someone else do it and upload them to the Wiki?

 		Volt: Yes, that's what I think. I suspect it won't be useful until we figure out how to extract useful information from the hidden text, but then it'll give us an order to read the extracted information in. However, it won't hurt do do the footwork now.

 		Could the Entity Not mean Dana is a Killer, but that it wants to Kill her? It just reminded me of the movie Secret Window with Johnny Depp. There was a character named Shooter in the movie, but when you broke down his name (for plot reasons) it was actually "Shoot Her."

Yeah Bellebet, I thought the same thing at first, but now I find it logical that The Operator has totally infected Dana's computer and has identified her as the "Killer" because she was trying to get rid of The Operator who had taken over the site. But, you never know. Both could be right. We should try to figure out more about these questions and answers, i think they will help answer our question.

Yeah, I just noticed that the text is the same... but the images are slightly different. I wonder why?

 		CrIKY!
Consider what we have:

"COUNTDOWN TO WIDE AWAKE AND PHYSICAL"

Dana is the "killer", which might also mean that the AI wants to "kill her". It can mean both.

Dana needs to leave for China where noone knows her. Why? Because the Queen will be physical and it wants to "kill her". The note on the blog seemed scared because the Queen had "seen her" - maybe now she can't hide anywhere anymore..

We need to solve this before the Queen becomes physical and kills Dana!

I agree. I also think someone should try to find out what Dana was doing when the killer pictures were taken, and find out for sure if Dana was the one asking the questions in the hidden text on those pictures. Has anyone emailed Dana recently asking when (if her character even knows) those pictures were taken, and when the conversation took place?

 		the questions
Dana did not ask the questions. The questions were mailed to ladybee777, and therefore intercepted by the Queen/Operator. They are a reply to us, while also relaying the idea of Dana being the killer.

 		Killer 13
Am I the only one who feels like Killer 13 one REALLY does not fit? The more I look at it the more it seems like it's a fake that someone on the forum threw in for a laugh.

Anyway, I'll believe it when I see the image. We still need 13, 11, and 10, and if anyone could fix image 12 which is now on the wiki I would be much obliged.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's real. "meddle in the affairs of dragons" is a line from my signature, and I had sent an email to the ladybee777 account. Looks like the Entity is still using text snippets to communicate as well as answer questions.
