hey!! u changed it?
Haha, sorry. I thought it needed a little more color. ;) It's still the same puzzle.
For the record, the original said: "Don't be deceived by what you can't see. The treasure you seek is bits behind me."
EDIT: PLEASE DON'T GIVE THE ANSWER AWAY!
you have no chance of me giving it away!! i have no idea where to even start :(
Can you give us a clue?
yeah. or PM the clue to both os us?!
Or even better, PM ther answer to both of us. I'm way too hungover.
HINT: A picture is worth a thousand words. This picture is a thousand bytes unaccounted for.

That's all I've found.... Big fat NOTHING!
Haha, sorry. Yeah, no anagrams. I didn't go that far. ;)
things that are hard.
things that i'm not smart enough to solve.
things that are stupid.
things that are dumb....
damn, i HATE $25,000 pyramid... :)
maby if i knew what it was i was trying to solve... all i see is a picture of a yellow block with the text bits behind me, thats being peeled away to show some binary..
the binary looks to equal 10101010 which i believe equals '170'
but then again the text said bits behind me, a byte is 2 bits, and 8 nibbles...
so really its 1010.. and 1010 in hexadecimal is as follows: hex = A, dec = 10, bin = 1010 ..
really though this seems like one of those things that just plain stupid and not worth the time of figuring out.
ok my answer is you have been sniffing far to much tupperware gas.
Oh yeah, I forgot he was the tupperware dude. How's that going?
Haha, our relationship hasn't been better. Thanks for asking. :D
OK, this hint should make more sense (BTW, the the binary on there was random. Has no literal meaning.):
"like wigs and makeup on men, i'm not what I appear to be. i hold a secret inside of me."
Hurry up and figure it out! I'm running out of "hints." :D
OK - I'm guessing that somehow we can extract binary from that image.. Don't know how to do that though?

Ahhhhhh just tell me the answer...
twinkies
is this one of those rebus puzzles?
like:
chimadena = made in china
or
Calm Storm = Calm before the storm
Nope.
No.
I pulled it apart with a Hex editor and everything.
Would someone PM me, either with the answer or a damn good hint - Thanks!
i still don't know the answer!!!
you seen my message genesis?
Sorry Carly (haha, it rhymed, sort of. :D). I thought you solved it. I guess Robbmc helped you out a little. :D The answer's actually a little complicated. Most people won't know this. Where are you now?
uh nope robb hasn't helped :confused: should he have done?
i still have no idea what i'm looking for i don't think.....
oh well maybe i'll just wait for someone to post the answer ;)
Look, seriously, I'm so hungover I could hardly do my own shoe laces up - I don't stand a chance of solving this - can you just PM me the answer and put me out of my misery?
these are the worst kinds of riddles.
These are the ones that arnt really riddles, they are just there to annoy people, there is no real answer, just a bait and switch scam used by two people, where one tells teh other to play along and does and is like i figured it out, and the other guy say wow you got it good work.
Its a waste of time loydall, lets talk about jessica alba.. or killer clowns from outer space.
i tried to rent that and they didn't have it in my blockbuster :(
its an amazing movie. it changed my life
You're making it harder than it is...Quote:

screw this. I'm goin back to frvade.
Actually, I think this is similar to one of the puzzles in frvade, if I recall correctly.
RECAP:
- Bits behind me...
- Don't be deceived by what you can't see. The treasure you seek is bits behind me.
- A picture is worth a thousand words. This picture is a thousand bytes unaccounted for.
- Like wigs and makeup on men named Tiffany, I'm not what I appear to be. I hold a secret inside of me.
LAST HINT:
Giving up on me will only worsen my depression, but not more than this splitting headache from all this compression.
I have been messing with the image file for over twenty minutes now and I still have no idea!!!
