If an image doesn't really look like anything (ie, all black with one white pixel), does it still count?
Well, I don't know if it counts, but if it was all white, you would be paid $25000 for it.
Now I'm envisioning Where's Waldo: Pixel Edition

"In this 1600x1600 box, all of the pixels are #FFFFFF, except one. Find the one that is #FEFEFE"

Bonus nerd points if you understood that :-)

Wasn't there a theory that you could find intelligent messages in the white fuzz the televisions used to blare out at night if you could 'randomise your perception', or am I just making that up?
