ok... no real 'prize involved'...
unless you consider absolute genius and
my respect as a prize....
as you all can see, i have changed not only
the forum pic but also the buttons.
the contest -- is to see if you can figure
out the relation between the images.
prior to this post, tg asked if the images
were relational to this forum in some way...
well, that remains to be seen. everything is relative.
so... attempt to figure it out....
goooooooooood luuuuuuuuuck [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img]
Happy new year.
yes.... it is new year...
however, the fact that its new year and i have
changed the images is merely circumstantial.
the relationship between both images would remain
regardless of what time of year it was.
guess again. [img]smile.gif[/img]
It's clearly a tribute to the band Manowar....
time to burn, the loser better learn, no one controls are god damn lives
This one's easy:
OLD POND
PLOP
A FROG
-by Basho alt sp. Baso.
In this case, it's insect rather than frog.

all EXCELLENT guesses!! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
let me see if i can give a better hint:
think of both the forum pic and the buttons
each as a mathematical sum/number.
one way to find a relation between two numbers
is to find its lowest common denominator
(please, no math hounds embarrass me on this).
when you find the lowest correlation, you should
easily be able to discover the answer.

Be splashy?
Ok, my second guess is.....
What was the name of the lead singer's penis from GWAR?
*That's not a question, it's the answer*
Hmmm. The first thing i start to think of, as far as math goes when i see that water is Pi. (no, not the stuff you eat tastingood, i mean the number, 3.141592653589 etc..)
now a common denominator between pi and any number would seem somewhat stupid, since pi is one of those irrational numbers that goes on forever and ever and thus only multiples of pi could be in the other pics. (so that there can be a common denominator). So. the easiest one would be : Just Pi.
Allthough this is probably completely off , it's what i thought when i went into math-mode.
another idea:
the two bees are exactly opposite, 180 degrees, whereas the full circle is 360 degrees.
So that would be 180 degrees, as common denominator.
i like the second idea better, zelany. dealing with pi is always too complicated. besides, i thought they were cockroaches?

um, yeah right. I see a reflection in the drop that looks like an antennae.
The two bugs have antennae. The bugs antennae are juxtaposed to each other, and the water drop and it's reflection are juxtaposed.
so, the pictures represent reflection.
omg... you are getting so close.
here's more help:
<ul type="square">[*] the fact that PI is the L.C.D. is significant.[*] the fact that both images contain reflection is
also significant.[*] the relationship between the pattern 180 degrees
and 360 degrees is also significant.[/list]
you are all soooooooooo close.
there is just one (obvious) variable you are lacking... [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img]
also... allow me to say that yes, the button
images are bees. cockroaches would have also
sufficed for this project -- however, bees
(in comparison to roaches) have one (main) thing
over cockroaches, in as far as 'society' is concerned.
stripes? stingers? honey? wings?
Oh my God! It's a clowns face with drool running down it's chin.
For of you visually challenged, do you see the clowns face or not?
yes

maybe i didn't feel like obliging you with a response
perhaps because you have yet to do the same for me
Well, actually you did already answer me.
I was just curious if anyone else noticed the clowns face before I mentioned it.
I didn't understand the PI reference to an LCD at all.
i can see 2 different clowns
this is stupid, i already won one contest, i don't feel like even trying to win another.
A clowns face, and a clowns eyes.
The PI means Pie in the face!
