*** Scavenger Hunt! ***

Postby Chacal » Sat Sep 24, 2005 11:09 pm

Scavenger hunt! :D

Go view the 2.5 gigapixel photo (as found by Spirit of Me).

See if you can find (from easiest to hardest):

- an observatory
- a sailboat
- an IKEA store
- 3 excavators
- firehoses
- a cute girl in a skirt sitting on the ground (almost an upskirt shot)
- a camel
- 2 Volkswagen beetles (the old model)
- a windmill
- a fire extinguisher
- a ISO-9002 certified company

Post a screenshot of your findings.

It's caused by the method they've used to paste together the huge composite shot. They explain it on the site. I've found a few transparent cars too.

Press Alt-PrtScr, start your favorite image editor (Irfanview is free and easy to use) and paste the picture in it (Ctrl-V). Then you can crop the picture to keep only the part you want.

Thanks, I got it to work now. I was pressing Ctrl-PrtScr. But Schwoff just posted pretty much the exact screenshot of the girl that I was about to post. Beat me to it... lol :D
