Well I was doing a little bit of ship spinning in the Pleasure Hub station when I all of a sudden saw some strange adverts:
Screenshot
It seems to be very angle dependant as normally this pillar under the "driveway" is grey/black.
Any idea what they actually say behind the blurryness?

Looks like the first one says "Life is a perilous bubble" or "This is a pointless babble". 
Second one is too blurry.

Or "Life is a pointless bubble". Would be fun to know what the other one says.

This is a pointless bubble.
The second one however, I know how to make it readable, but it's alot of effort, and I'm not feeling up to it.

LIAR. The location you are looking at isn't even hard to get the camera to point at. It's right by the docking pad, facing the docking pad, there is only one pillar like that and nothing is on it. You did a bad photoshop and lied to the Eve community. Hope you enjoy the response.

Edited by: Chelone on 15/08/2007 05:43:33 This is my main, you idiot. Prove him wrong? Prove something doesn't exist? That's a laugh. I wasted way too much time in Quafe "pleasure hub" stations with camera angles looking for something that doesn't exist. It is a dark grey pillar. There is nothing on it. If he cares to prove it exists, he can take several more shots from even the tiniest change in angle. That will demonstrate that it isn't a photoshop.
I give the OP credit for being imaginative in his fabrication. My theory is that he is promoting his website / case-modding business. If so, he should have done a better job with the photoshop.

Actually it does exist, I just saw it. On my screen it looks faded though, almost black and very difficult to see against the pillar texture. You have to play with your left and right mouse buttons and move your mouse around the right way and it's a bit tricky, but after 2 mins I made it. Nice find. --

Thanks, it require that you get the angle just right, hence why I never seen it in the past 18 months. Easiest is to zoom out and up a bit then use the right mouse button to look down and away from the landing pad.
If it was in plain site constantly it wouldn't be much of an easter egg in the first place.

Took it through a photo editing software and it does say "This is a pointless babble".

Cool, those textures are tiny, no wonder they are nearly impossible to read. 
Btw, I will try and grab a second screenshot after work if anyone still think it is a fake.

Oh my god I just saw it! The trick is you have to spin your ship 10,000 times in a row at just the right angle! And I found something else! If you spin your ship 10,000 more times in a row, you get 12 Gallentean Hologram women to come and serve your every need! "You liar where's the proof" well here's the proof you skeptics:
UNDENIABLE PROOF
That is TOTALLY from the texture file! So obviously I couldn't have made it up!!
P.S.: Does anyone know of any cheap holographic motels?

So 21 hours and 37 minutes later, we finally have a 2nd screenshot. My only apology is with the extreme tone of my first post. I started off at about 9/10 when 4/10 would have been sufficient. I would never apologize for being a skeptic. On the contrary, the people who vehemently came out to troll and slander me did so on the basis of a single screenshot, which any rational person have to admit looks really fake. "Gullible", just like Frug pointed out.

Poor Chelone, always getting the rough end of the stick. 
Perhaps this must be viewed at an appropriate angle, but I wasn't able to see them. I am amazed, however, that the picture in the OP shows up so clearly.

You claim that the picture view is very angle dependant, yet you view it from many angles.

I tried to get as close to an angle in your original post as possible. Perhaps it's a glitch? I dunno.  ************************************

I don't know tbh. 
When I took the second set of screenshots the textures slowly faded in and out as if a lightsource was flying past them. They were also visible from all angles at the time as can be seen in the screenshots.

Chelone...if you download the tool to export the textures and all other resources like sound files and samples etc, then you will see the truth  It is nice to see that you might have seen the light.

Edited by: Chelone on 16/08/2007 03:58:58 What hole? That hole is dug by people on the forum who disrespect others based on their character's age. You don't see me doing that. I had a p-ed off day so instead of posting "I'd like to see more screenshots" I got angry, but then apologized.
As for why the OP is the only one that has come up with a clear view of the texture, I have to imagine it has something to do with the graphics card. I spent an hour looking at all imaginable angles and there is absolutely no trace of this texture, it is solid black, black, black. Even gamma correcting or manipulating the screen shots, there is no trace. I am reminded of times in Eve where you fly around and space is all white (that's fun...) or other graphical glitches, so I'd like to know what is going on in that respsect.
Mashie - what ship were you in the first time? Maybe the ship has a headlight or light source that lights up the texture? What graphics card?

Everyone can have a bad day and tbh this is EVE-O so a little bit of flaming back and forward is expected or a thread has failed. 
As for the texture, I tend to agree it might be a mixture of badly placed textures + the wonder known as ATI drivers. It's a Jaguar used in those pics but I could also see the textures with a Viator.
The graphic settings are as follow: Two x1900 in crossfire with 14xAA and 16xAF running 2 windowed clients (1800x1440 and 1024x768) on a 2560x1600 desktop. The adverts were visible on both of them. The driver is either catalyst 7.6 or 7.7 at the moment, can't remember.
