In the episode "A Bicyclops Built For Two" there is an ALien Ad when they first get on the net... what does it say? I cant get too good of a shot at it, not a clear on atleast.
Anybody? (Esp. Taco or Tor)

Sorry, the use of colors on the ad really makes it hard to make out even 1 character, not to menchon the poor quality of the avi.  I even reversed the values of the freeze-frame but still not enough, maybe when I get the episode on tape I'd see it better.  Until then.

Yeah I know. I had a decent picture, but the first 2 rows are impossible. I've noticed that N's are the easiest to see... I can get a letter here and there but not too much... oh well.
I found a billboard that to my knowledge, has never been seen before! see my site for more... (Xmas Story)

The last one (stickler) says "Lander returned to this site by the Historical Sticklers Society" I forgot to add it to the image itself.

Thanks for drawing my attention to that, my file manager musta had a brain fart because it wasn't recognizing the directory of half my files, it should be working now though, but some of the links in the post column might not be working.

How about the Arm reaching for the can?

Also In the variety from Thats Lobstertainment, I noticed so wierd crap at the bottom, made up of 3 groups of words. Its not AL though its just words.

From what I see, it says:
Fox Exes Bax Sex Pix, Flix Lax Crux Bax, Stox Stix, Ax Pres.

The First part means:
Fox Executives Back Sex Pictures.

but the rest i dont get. the pic is here:

I'll keep this thread alive with another problem I have:

In the Episode Luck of the Fryrish, I found a new siting of Alien Language (hint hint Tor). As soon as the ship arrives at the track, it cuts to a scene where a jockey leads a horse accross the screen. They pass in front of a group of ads. The first ad, in red and yellow, there is an alien language message. I can't read it properly because i have a low quality episode. Can anyone else get it? AU credit!

Welcome, Norwegian, whoever you are. (Jadda... Husk å besøke KFNF da!)

Chump: Luck of the Fryish will air in Norway Aug 23. I'll have a look at it then.

In Norway, new episodes are aired Monday-Thursday, that's 4 episodes a week! Not bad eh?

I think that he ripped it from else where. Theres nothing there I haven't seen before.

Tor, did you determine if that sign beside the AL1 sign in My Three Suns is AL2 or not?

« Reply #34 on: 08-24-2001 04:58 »

I don't think it's AL2.
I don't recognise any of the symbols, and there are only a few unknown symbols in AL2.

Good news, everyone! I was unable to solve the Luck of the Fryish AL mystery! Wait, that's not good news at all!

Sorry, the video just hadn't high enough resolution to see the smallest symbols. But what I found supports your theory, Chump.

And, this is the first message with my new, custom avatar. THANKS PAUL!!

I feel under-appreciated...

Trust me, I stared at the freeze-frame on my TV for a long time and "lifetime" is way to big for the amount of characters on that last word.  I'm thinking it's a joke about a corporation join in the year 3000 that's with ABC, like MSNBC is today.
