[edit] Moved from page

I moved the following from the page. It's a good idea, but the implementation is flawed — one of the shares shows the image. — Matt Crypto 08:36, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I did a mistake. The second image was also intended to be black&white whereas it contained some additional colours that gave it away. I changed it to monochrome and now I hope it's ok, but it's still better if you check it :). Thanks for the notice. Random user name 20:12, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

The images look OK to me now. So I moved them back to the article. It seems terribly complicated, though, in order to communicate a well-known logo. Would a much lower-resolution image that encoded a short bit of text be worthwhile? Perhaps something about the squeamish ossifrage or something else from the list of famous ciphertexts? --DavidCary 16:31, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

I don't quite understand the use of 'complicated' here. Is the problem with the size of the image or the wording of the description? Random user name 02:44, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Fascinating idea, but I don't have Matlab. Any way of showing what the result is supposed to be without Matlab?


Is this worth adding to the article?
