I was sitting here and I thought that it could be cool to have a game where the forum is presented with an image which has been cropped and distorted slightly and get the forumites to guess what the original image might have been. If I go first, we'll see how it turns out. Here's my image:  PM me your answers so that people aren't influenced by your answer and I'll reveal the image and a winner at the end of a designated amount of time, shall we say a week? Discussion welcome in this thread, on topic or not  If you want to submit an image (both clear and distorted) then PM them to me and I'll work through an image a week or so. Ben

Has anyone else tried clicking the PM links in the OP? They bring up a compose PM window, but look who they are going to... I'll give you a clue... Ask Jeeves [Bot] At least it does on my PC! PM link fail!

Just tried again and it's still doing it... you are clicking on the link in the post, as opposed to the PM button, aren't you?

Sorry about this, I completely forgot about it And apologies for the rogue PM link, I'll have to doubly make sure my link in the OpenSource HOWTO thread is OK... Well, we had a number of guesses, three people guessed Ritz crackers, four people mentioned biscuits and one some slices of pineapple. JV, Spreadie, L3v1ck, and Bratty were the closest with either generic "biscuit" or "digestives". The answer is:  Although the game contained a fair amount of fail on my part, if anyone wants to contribute images, I'll try and remember to be a little more prompt

So who was the first person to say biscuits? It's their turn.

I knew it was rich tea. Honest. I've only just seen the thread though.
