[?PUZZLE] Strange Picture (Dr. House's Button)

First of all: Sorry if this isn't important or doesn't fit into this discussion catagory (I'm new at this - this is my first post). Anyway, I noticed in a pic of Dr.Ed House that he is wearing a strange button that seems Photoshopped onto his shirt. It is a shiny silver color, and it looks odd in a black-and-white old photograph. Try this link: http://www.cambridgementalhospital.com/history3.html

I hope this means something/helps. Sorry if it is simply a waste of time.

P.S. With a second glance at the pic - There is definently something... odd about it - I just can't pinpoint what it is...

The Truth Is Out There.

Hiya, I'm new to this as well Smile

The pic does look a little odd.. looks like an 'M' or something on the badge he's wearing and it does seem to stand out from the rest of the picture. When you open it up in Notepad you can see the words 'Ducky' and 'Adobe' - 'Ducky' seemed a bit weird to me at first but searching through other forums it seems it's a common word that Photoshop adds to the headers of pictures. So, it has been Photoshopped... the other photos were created in something called gd-jpeg, so perhaps something has been altered in this one? I dunno, I'm just speculating.

Anyone want to work their magic on this picture and see if there's something in it?

Of course the photoshop tag doesn't mean anything has been altered "per se" (it could be scanned in trough photoshop). But it can't harm to check it out. I'd be willing to but I'm at work so it'll have to wait till tonight (CET). Anyone else? Smile

Here's a sharpened, more focused image of the pin.

Looks like a mountain, not like a pin at all.

If you look at it, you can see that Photoshop effects were added to it.

Even better... if Dr House is a martian it would connect him to Doom 3. Martianbuddy.com and there was an Ancient Terror released on mars heh

It looks like an affilation pin...that symbol somehow looks occult to me...the sideways three with a dot underneath it.

Could be it's planted now and will be revealed later as proof of affiliation with a secret society?

That works for me - it's so small and blurred that I don't think we can get anything else out of it for the time being

To me it looks more like a photograph of two people side by side. A man and a woman most likely (but that would be an odd thing to have pinned to your chest...)

Though I appreciate it, I just wanted to make it clear that I wasn't the first person to make this connection. Though it wasn't discussed in this particular thread, it's been noted for awhile that there is a connection between Dr. House's button, the image in the sound file from Ron, and the tilework from the Gold Mine Hotel. All of them are depictions of the same symbol, which we now also find on the new 7th son site...

I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I believe I was the first one to spec that the pin was of the stylized fleur-de-lis. Very Happy
