HOWEVER The Bruce, there are two blobs in that static, could those be your reference points?

hehe but even so, none of the three coloured 'squares' are in line wth each other... horizontally or vertically...
really, it's quite a stretch, IMO, to believe this is a stereogram...

Lol - well I didnt mean a stereogram you guys - I meant like LITERALLY embedded in the image.
I've seen pictures where it looks normal, but when you invert the colors you see the inverted image along with "HAHA PWNED" written across it...
Like, hidden pixels and stuff.. I didnt mean a hidden image that you could just see... I mean embedded within the pixels inside the image.

Something is going on... I must say, the only other ARG I have gotten involved with is the one from the matrix. ilovebees is def a lot more fun. I can't wait to see how everything turns out!

This would be beyond cool. Tomorrow's update is supposed to be big, and I almost believe it will be directly related to the ARG. But I'm not going to get my hopes up, just to avoid letdown.
I don't have audio here at work, so would someone be so kind as to post a detailed description of the sound?

I'm guessing the site (which I hadn't been to before ten minutes ago) used to just play the Halo 1 Start Screen music over and over again. (Chorus singing slowly and softly)
Now it plays that, plus every five or so seconds there's a boom (I think to represent Covie attacks?) and it shakes up the screen with the whole wavy static thing.
Anyone else notice the countdown timer? I know it's to the 9th, but why 1:20 pm EST?

here is a screenshot of the jpeg image compression part of the website messed up. I figured it would be eaiser to look at if it wasn't moving. I don't see anything of any particular value in it. Maybe someone else will.

Inverted Colors I copied the picture and pasted it in paint and inverted the colors. I think this is what Arashi was getting at. It kinda looks like a planet, or to me a portrait of George Washington???. Maybe its just me.

More triangles. I'm definitely of the opinion now that these are some sort of code:

With absolutely nothing to actually base this on, other than it might fit with a letter substitution,
I'm [SPEC]ing the last line of triangles says "we love bees"
Note, I'm only half serious about this...

The sad part, is it fits perfectly... I wouldn't be overly surprised.
edit: Oh, and I forgot, the inverted color pic above looks kind of like the level skulls on Halo. You know, normal, hard, legendary.

Actually.. we love bees seems like it would fit on the last line
moments too late..
hmm.. so if that Is a true decode it could be a partial key..

They don't look like them to me. I'm not sure, but I believe the symbols found inside the Silent Cartographer and 343 Guilty Spark levels are Forerunner - either the Forerunner put them there or the Covenant did. And those are a lot more circular than these blocky things.
