I took a very very close look at the colors in the MP using the art program Gimp. I pulled color samples. The right samples being the original image and the left being the MP resized to 12 * 12. I used a larger brush to create the comparing blocks. They all match perfectly. I then overlaid the MP over the original image with a B&W border.

Since they appeared different to you when you were searching, I would seriously look at how you save/store/view/compare images on your computer as well as your monitor settings.

Thanks stamps. Using your image here on ppt in your first post, I overlaid it and it looks right, but using the image that I have on my computer that i copied from neopets before the image went missing, the shades are more orange, less brown by a significant amount. I'll have to look into that.

Found it.... Check neopedia to find it and that is all I'm saying.

My goodness that was hard. With the people I worked with, we went through the entire thing 7 times before finding it, and even after knowing the right picture there was trouble finding it.

Anyone still looking, search long and hard, and look closely at everything green, or you'll pass it up.

The resize was made using a screenshot of a html file. You are bound to get wierd results that way. Screenies are not as high quality. Your best bet is to save the actual image from the website. That's probably why you didn't get a match.

Got it!

Thanks for the hint! - I didn't find it very hard to locate, btw. The hardest part is always wording it.

I was wondering about that. If I put punctuation marks in my answer, will their computer disregard it?

I'm probably a little late.. well, a lot late, but hey, if i'm right, i'll be so happy! Even if I don't win anything.
