The only way I found (it was so easy to find one method, and everyone struggled so I kept searching in vain for other methods) was posterize (default settings) in Microsoft Photo Editor (included with almost all versions of Microsoft Office).

I had to use a lot of photoshop with 15. I played with the color balance across the levels to get black spots out, then I noticed a reddish area that I worked on to get the final url. Again I don't know how I would have done some of those without photoshop

Oh, and don't copy and paste the image into photo editor like a noob. I didn't realize it was a .gif for a bit. Save it to disk, then do the above... Took me a bit.

I tried using the described method for #15. I have Office 2000, but cannot find the Microsoft Photo Editor anywhere. I do have photoshop, and tried messing with it in there, and can see where the text is faintly, but cannot get it clear enough to see what it says.

SPOILER:















Go to www.gifworks.com, change the color to blue.

Spoiler:






Save to disk, open Paint or any other picture editor. Chose a non-white color and fill anywhere (if you are unlucky you may have to fill a couple of times, but it should be obvious by then).

Spoiler for #6:
















1. Go to image properties
2. Copy and past the url address
3. Click enter
4. You will be taken to another page...and there u wll see the letters








Now, if someone tell me how to get past #11. I highlight the picture, I see all the letters, but no matter what combination I choose, it doesn't work :(

just read it straight left to right, two rows worth. I'm not sure if this one had to be in all capitals or not. So you might want to try that. also.
