What is this an image of?

[FJ218700]

I got this idea from SeVeN's April desktop post. It might be fun for a while.

Identify what the image is, or is a part of.
Whoever identifies the image correctly has 1 hr to post their own, after which anyone may post a new image.

Only images representing the whole, or part, of tangible items are permitted. i.e. no posting of a Vista logo and waiting until someone correctly guesses: “Hey, it’s a piece of crap”.

If two people guess correctly at the same time, whoever can post a new image within the hour
gets to start the next series.

If you want to make a new guess, post a new thread, don't edit your previous one or this will screw up the deeming of the "winner".

Sorry for the rules, I hate rules, but we realized early on they were needed.


I'll start with an easy one.

[EvryDayImShufln]

correction: mac mini vents from the back

[iBookG4user]

The Macbook or iBook vent on the side of the laptop?

[iMeowbot]

A carton for rectangular eggs.

[NickElls]

Vents of a Mini.

[FJ218700]

Vents of a Mini.

exactly,

that was way too easy.

I should have posted Windows hardware for fun.

[EvryDayImShufln]

That made me think.. I got one for you guys

Try to figure out what this is

Since the first one has already been guessed, I'll post one. The blurriness is part of the fun :p.

Guess I should've made it harder. You got it.

[faintember]

Edit: Darn. Beaten b/c of my wireless router!

[EvryDayImShufln]

My challenge still stands uncompleted

I'll give: it was a horizontal bar of ****

[FJ218700]

well we knew that,

I thought you were going for some abstract, poetic concept.

[nickster9224]

no its the new game

[Clusty]

There needs to be some kind of rule system set up in the first post.

Ex: The person who guesses correctly posts the next image, if that person fails to post a picture within 36(is that good?) hours, the OP can post a new picture.

Like "eye spy" rules

[nickster9224]

i used to love those eye spy books

[FJ218700]

There needs to be some kind of rule system set up in the first post.

How's this:

Only images representing the whole, or part, of concrete, 3D, tangible, items.

the "guesser" has 12 hr to re-post before another member may jump in?

Any other ideas? I'll go back and edit the rules into my original if no one else comments.

[xUKHCx]

I meant "eye spy with my little eye" but those books were indeed amazing.

Maybe it should fall to the second person who guessed it (because due to people's typing speed + connection speed probably mean multiple responses). So the second person could've actually guessed before the first, but there must be a limit to this.

Therefore falls to the second (maybe reduce the time to 4 hours here), but after the second it goes wide open.

[nickster9224]

agreed. but in the meantime would someone post a new picture

Edit: Reduced size to fit page better. (Didn't realise it was so big when first posted) Larger version here (http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e370/xUKHCx/1410040553.jpg)

[FJ218700]

To keep it as simple as possible, I think that if the "guess" times are identical, whoever can post a new image the fastest gets to run the next series. Perhaps the winner(s) should only have 1 hr before anyone can post?

[nickster9224]

abstract art?

Seems like a good set of rules.

[FJ218700]

alright done, I'll add them to the top.

[FJ218700]

give us a hint, is the background the sky?

[xUKHCx]

Do bears ...

It is in the UK but I am certain it is not country specific

[FJ218700]

Do bears ...

they do in the US, do they in the UK?

I've been thinking all along it was part of the rotor on a helicopter, but I'm probably way off.

[FJ218700]

or perhaps some sort of anarchist's shrine?

[xUKHCx]

Well technically in the UK they in zoos but the answer is that it is the sky.

You are quite a way off.

or perhaps some sort of anarchist's shrine?

Never noticed that before but no.

[silbeej]

Sign post, i see metal bands.?

[xUKHCx]

Sign post, i see metal bands.?

And the winner is.

It is a 20/30 mph road sign. If you look closely you can see the reflective red paint.

[silbeej]

I'm really busy now, so someone else can go ahead and post. Don't want to stop it for everyone.

Exactly how large are they making these dolls now? :eek: :D

[FJ218700]

It's not the size, it's the density.
