Is that some sort of code?

How did you find this exactly? Seems like really heavy encryption (some parts look like md5).

I got this the other day, couldn't make anything out of it though.

Google for the RGB numbers - 129108149

Jack

The RGB values at 417/333 are 129 108 151

I've checked and rechecked.

I still got 105 98 129

0x800ccc0d.com is a really interesting site. It seems to be a maze of links. The html code isn't encrypted so it could be a part of a game, but this might not be drjim's. The server was established 1-Jun-2004, too early for this game. BTW do numbers 128 12 204 13, or number 2148322317 ring a bell? The domain name is obviously hex.

EDIT:This is not important. Google with "0x800ccc0d.com". This is some kind of an experiment that has already ended. 100 000 000 random pages+1real page.
NOT IMPORTANT

Hm...maybe they made a mistake? The 3 numbers ARE the RGB values at 417/333, but the values are different in every image.

yeah I'm trying to decide which image I should be concentrating on. I even thought about it being the red value of each image,as project red-web was mentioned, but I still can't suss this thing out

There are the values I've gotten for all 3 images:

129 108 151 Image explosion

108 97 131 Image lights on left

152 131 126 Image lights on right


What I find interesting is that if you read the columns rather than the rows, they are nearly identical, except the 151 and 152 don't match.

129 108 151 reads 129 108 152 down. 108 97 131 can be seen reading down the middle 3 numbers, and 151 131 126 is almost identical at the bottom (152 131 126).

Maybe that is something?

Cutwolf thats exactly what I found 2 nights ago.
But now I got different numbers. Check my post if u didnt: www.abovetopsecret.com...


when I read 333/417 its 99 85 100

Upload and post the images you're using, please. I might have an earlier copy that they changed.

[edit on 16-9-2004 by Cutwolf]

I copy pasted everytime from the "images" forum.
omg I think I know why its different
I copy from the page then I goto photoshop, I say "new" and then "paste" But if I copy the image to my disk then "open" it, the RGB numbers are diffferent!
so I checked again and cutwolf your numbers seem to be right.

I was wondering, probably nothing, but is there a way in photoshop to make a layer with just that color showing? Being that area of the pic is so color mixed, if we can isolate just that color (at coordinate 417/333), and "lift it" put it in its own layer it may work. Grasping at straws now Lol.

This point has been bugging me for days now.

To the extent where I asked someone else to check, (someone who uses Photoshop CS) but am still waiting for their reply. I didn't post about it because I didn't want to confuse the situation.

These are the results I get:

The RGB values of Pix are:

On 01 First in the series Edited.jpg (FROM DrJim) they are :
R=114
G=95
B=127
With Both Paint Shop Pro 8 and Adobe Photoshop CS

On 02 Second in the series.jpg (FROM DrJim) they are:
R=153
G=132
B=129
With Both Paint Shop Pro8 and Adobe Photoshop CS


On 01 First in the series.jpg (EXPLOSION) they are:
R=129
G=108
B=149
With Paint Shop Pro 8

R=129
G=108
B=151
With Adobe Photoshop CS


As you can see, on one picture (with the explosion) I get differing RGB values from the same pic using different progs. I have checked and rechecked these for days because of the discrepency and those values are correct for the pictures I have. I haven't accidentally sampled the wrong pixel, and have been ever since finding this out.

Jack

I'm using photoshop CS and getting diff. values than those except for the 129 108 151

The jpeg image decompression algorithms might be slightly different. That would explain the small difference. Any image compression experts here?

If the rgb codes aren't percisely fixed in decompresion then can the rgb values be the real clues?

[edit on 16/9/04 by tontsum]

Well if that's the case, that wouldn't be fair. If everyone has different numbers, how is anyone going to know which is right?

I'm getting slightly different values.
I can't find my way around photoshop too well ,so I've been getting the colour from pixel 417/333 in paint with the pick up tool (?) and going to define custom colours to get their value.

I'm getting

R 111 G 96 B 125 for Jims first pic
R 153 G 132 B 127 for the second image
R 129 G 108 B 149 for rangers image

perhaps using paint isn't the most accurate method? I don't know?

With Microsoft Photo Editor I get:
129 108 149 - freeweb
105 99 129- drjim's first
152 131 126 -drjim's second

But it's not a program to be trusted.

EDIT: codes were in wrong order

[edit on 16/9/04 by tontsum]

I dealt with my photoshop problem. Here is the final results:
image1 (flashes in the left)
108
97
131

image2 (flashes in middle of canyon)
152
131
126

image3 (explosion)
129
108
151

im working on something at the moment and i should have something to post soon i think i know what to do now
