I was inspired by the "Are you a hacker" thread by 'flamingcowz' and I decided to make my own.

This one uses considerably more methods of hiding the truth from you; from file extensions to image manipulation.

Let's see if you're really good enough to get into my hall of fame.

The end result is a phrase that you should post into this thread. You should find this a little easier if you know how flamingcowz's puzzle worked.

Here's the first piece of the puzzle:

CLUE: The first layer of defense, the download file itself, has THREE possible file extensions, one being an image.

Have fun!

PS. I forgot to mention, there's a 50 point reward!

Sounds like a fun challenge. I will get right to hacking.

So far ive got to "Haha, well done! This is the last secret, can you find the answer?"

EDIT: "TELL PJ1115 "WHYDIDYOUWASTEMYTIME""

Is that the anser?

Yes it is!

I've decided that Robkellas and w15hb0n3 got it very quickly, so they'll each get 30 points, instead of getting 50 for one person.

How did you get the message from the last image? Did you turn up the contrast?

I looked at my LCD sideways and I saw it. Im on a laptop so it was pretty easy.

Nah, I didn't have to it showed up just fine on my screen. What did you do to it? Of course I think my brightness is up all the way though.
