pssst....Lara...

[who moi]

ok, have a puzzle for you...

rule: you can't hit reply to figure it out. ;)

hint: if you get stuck, it's in my photos. :D

OK, below this post...:D

(the question is HOW I created this puzzle vs what IS the puzzle...:) )

Hitting reply isn't the thing, it's hitting quote. That's how I figured out the last one. I haven't done that, but it's difficult trying to figure out how you created a puzzle that isn't visible. lol :winky: The last one was invisible because you chose white as your text colour.

I thought something might happen if I refreshed, but that didn't work.
I figure it's got something to do with either perspective or refresh but I don't know. I'll try to think about it. try being the operative word.

The only other thing I can think of is that you've created an image and changed it offline or removed a link or something.

Don't tell me!!!

I thought it might have had something to do with the message editing format, but I'm still checking that out with my control panel.

[Lara]

ah ha!

You do have two images on the page. LOL

I know there are two because when I right click the mouse in the invisible space I get the details of the image.

I checked and the two images are different sizes, thus I know there are two images there.

p.s. here's the properties of your "blank" image

OK, so is there more to this puzzle that I've missed?

I guess you did it with Photo shop or something?
I just found this interesting tutorial too...

This page: Blank Transparent Image.

or there's

How to create an empty Image
From BYTES

Bitmap newie = new Bitmap( 16, 16, PixelFormat.something );

Stream stream = new FileStream( "image.jpg", FileMode.xxx, FileAccess.xxx )
;

newie.Save( stream , ImageFormat.Jpeg );

Heck, it's all jibberish to me. LOL

:) Lara, good job!

I created a BLANK using photo chop. :)

Then used NT to serve it.

I did that for two reasons.

One, if your history and cookies were clean/free of NT. Then you wouldn't have been able to see it in lurk mode.

that would throw you off.

If you would've logged in, you would've been able to get the properties of the photo. LOL

but I also figured that since you were trying to save on your internet bill, that'd you'd log immediately off but I figure you're the type to clear your cache.

and if that happened, you wouldn't been able to get the properties again. I was hoping that would throw you off...LOL

Well, good job!!

:)

:rolleyes:

[Lara]

LOL too funny.

Yeah, I am that 'type'. I clear cache every time I disconnect.

[Alffe]

I have no idea what you all are talking about but am intrigued. :D I right clicked and learned nothing.....*grin

[Koala77]

I think some-one has too much time on his/her hands. :rolleyes:

I must admit I was trying to work it out before I went to bed last night, but had to give up. :D

[who moi]

I know, I am so weird...

when I was born, the pocket protector came out first and my dad fainted...

:rolleyes:

LOLOL

[Lara]

We have this expression here in Australia.


You're such a dag! :D

[Koala77]

The saying "a dag" used in this way, is an affectionate term. Please don't ask what it means when not used in this fashion! :o

[Lara]

LOL! Exactly. :wink:

Go ahead - intimidate a newbie!!

Barb, it's not just newbies I assure you..... it was way beyond my powers of analysis as well! :D

[Spanish Moss]

*scratching head and wondering about the intelligence and creativity of several people around here....


(Invisible puzzles?....and Lara figured it out??!!!)

:cool:

[Lara]

LOL :confused: spooky huh?

[who moi]

OK, anyone wants to try this one? LOL

(Lara, I know you're trying to save loading time/size thus have your graphics turned off. But just in case you get really bored....LOL ;) )

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Question is: Where does it "Go?" ;)

*clue: It's always been here.... :D

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2e/Go_board.jpg (http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/group.php?groupid=5)

[Lara]

It goes to "Friends of Bot" group?

I wasn't "bored" but I did feel compelled to go turn on my images. lol

[Spanish Moss]

This is what Moi's brain looks like when he is tired....

(I did'nt know how to find one in motion....but you get the idea....)

[Lara]

OK, apparently I didn't finish the puzzle.

After going to "Friends of Bot" group,
it goes to "My very own selfish anti-social group "group".
Then it goes to Moi's Profile page.
Then if I hit the target/circular image it brings me back here.

*clue: It's always been here....
LOL Moi. Is that what you were doing when you weren't sleeping till 3aM?

MissusMoss is right you know. ;)
