Really Creeped Out...

Hearing about resource hacker in the software area of the forum refound my interest in using the program. So i opened up aimres.dll and was surfing through files I could change to "enhance" my experience if I ever decided to not use gaim for some reason. Anyway so Im looking through the pictures, and I randomly find this hidden in the depths of it:

I have no idea why it would be there but I thought it was pretty funny.

If you guys want to see it for yourselves, go ahead and get the program. Open up aimres.dll(It's in your AIM folder, Wink

)
Then surf your way to GIFDATA>111>1033

Creepy. Yikes

Its actualy a rather common practice for software designers. If you open up any un-modified program of by me you will find my picture. Its in a way a form of prooving if someone else is using your code. A friend of mine composes musis. He records his name and phone number in every song at a high pitched frequency that you have to run through a special filter he created to hear it. Its easy to hear if its uncompressed. Once it gets converted to MP3 tou can hear something their if run through filter but it becomes kinda garbled. But can still be made out.

I remember in Win98 you could see the microsoft complex and a list of everyone on the design team. It was pretty cool.

Easter Eggs like that are pretty common...I did something like that for a flash CD program I made for the school I used to work at.
