We were all sad to find that Helios had finished his Guess What's On The Picture contest, and to avoid there being a great big black hole where his contest once was, I've decided to start my own 
Here's the rules... 3 Guesses each, 20 FRIH$ for teh winner of each round. I'm also looking for a specific answer, not "Something like..." (yup, Helios is 
and so am I 
) And I might give clues if I think you need them.
So here we go with round one - GOOD LUCK!
----------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: I didn't realise Helios had "Copyrighted" the guess-what's-on-the-picture idea (since the text was hidden 
). However, we had a talk about it and he's given me permission to run the contest for the moment - thanks Helios! (and apologies again for the misunderstanding!)
So, this is not an original idea (never claimed that it was) all credit to Helios, the all-powerful, all-evil Moderator I should also add that this idea is Copyright (c) Helios and you need his permission, not mine if you want to run a similar thread.

This is a printer/faxer Can you give me a clue its way to blurry ?
I'll just make it official, if you don't mind:
I officially pass all the rights to use the idea of the contest "Guess what's on the picture" to Animal(user ID 8751) a.k.a animalthemuppet.
Animal now has all the rights to run this contest until the end of days or until I(Helios [user ID 98] a.k.a Helios Zepp a.k.a -SainT-) and Animal will have another agreement between us and us only.
Please, enjoy the contest!
Animal, no hard feelings. Enjoy running it!

Nope. Think smaller.
This becomes a bit easier if you sit further away from the screen! | TeenZine wrote: |

No it's not a pen. One guess left in this round TeenZine.

Its the black thing were looking at right ? | TeenZine wrote: |
| Its the black thing were looking at right ? |
It's the whole image. The image is intentionally zoomed in and blurred, but the thing you're trying to recognise takes up the entire image.You're right. It is somewhat easier to see further away.
Is it USB ports?

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!
You're correct, it's a USB port.
Congratulations Xcelerate, 20 FRIH$ are yours!

Last edited by TeenZine on Mon Apr 24, 2006 1:36 am; edited 1 time in totalI suppose I'll give you that one! It is PSP-compatible memory, but the answer I was really looking for was it's a Memory Stick (would also accept Pro, Duo and Pro Duo for all the geeks out there )
Congrats TeenZine - 20FRIH$ on their way to you!

One more guess left this round Scorpio.
CLUE: Virtually every computer has one of these in one form or another.These are some parts placed on the mainboard or some card's PCB. The purple element and these two small are the condensers
| Sebaci wrote: |

Sorry, but you're wrong - not even close, in fact!
2 guesses left this round Sebaci
Hmm I will try to explain (I don't speak english well):
This is a little lever placed with the socket of the processor and it's used to "lock" the CPU
I am just going to wait before using my last chance

is it LED? | afracsass wrote: |
| is it LED? |
Nope, it's not an LED. Two guesses left afracass!
CLUE: You get internal (built-in) versions of these and you get external versions. The external ones are much more common than internal.
Wireless hards or like wireless internet.
| Blaster wrote: |
| Wireless hards or like wireless internet. |
Not even close.
It's something that you use rather than something that is used by the computer.it's a laptop mouse, blaster, you gotta be more specific! (give him the money anyway though ) | Blaster wrote: |
| A mouse/ keyboard? |
Woo Hoo! You're correct, it's a laptop "button" mouse in the middle of a keyboard! 20FRIH$ on their way to you Blaster.
Bogger, yes, you're specific, but the picture does show a keyboard and a mouse - you'll need to get there quicker in the next round!
--------------------------------------------------------------
Here's another one for you all:
Good Luck (again!)

This one's a bit evil
Good Luck All! I know you didn't right that. Your mind did. I just typed it for you.
This is a water bottle | Blaster wrote: |
| This is a water bottle |
No, this is not a water bottle (not sure why you think it looks like one either! 
)
| Sebaci wrote: |
| It's the side of monitor |
No, I'm afraid it's not.
BIG CLUE: Ok, this is a difficult one so here's a big clue for you:
It has absolutely nothing to do with computers. The black mark on it is actually text - it's part of the name of the item's manufacturer. The item is circular.
Any new guesses?
I have no clue about what it can be, but is the first letter in the text a 'Z'?
its a golf ball 
i havent played this even tho ive been watching this forum for quite a while well thisis my guess..
a CD-ROM/DVD/CD .. the middle part of it?
He said it was nothing related to computers
Is CD DVD something else??
oh didnt read sorry? somethign circular..something plastic... a ball of some sort?
Two chances gone for you and I still cant think of anything 
| Loghete wrote: |
| I have no clue about what it can be, but is the first letter in the text a 'Z'? |
That would be a clue if I answered that Yes, it's a Z
| Manwho wrote: |

| RaMo wrote: |

Nope, it's not plastic or a ball - sorry RaMo, 1 guess left this round.
Ok, so you're obviously all struggling so here are some CLUES!
The letter you can see in the picture is a Z. This is the first letter in the word.
The object is a metal alloy consisting of 92% Copper and 8% Tin
The object is 14" in diameter
Any new guesses? I am not sure about the Z
But it is the circular thing used in percussion instruments In a drum
A cymbal i guess
Zildjian perhaps

w00t!!!! We have a winner! Congratulations Scorpio - here comes your 20FRIH$
It's actually a Hi-Hat (which is a type of cymbal) and you're correct, it's made by Zildjian. That's some nice Googling Scorpio
------------------------------------

Nope. This thing is made of metal. | bogger wrote: |
| Is it a guitar? |
No, it isn't a guitar.
CLUE: This thing is not a musical instrument, but it is related to music.
it's also much more obvious if you move away from the screen!
An amplifier? | dz9c wrote: |
| An amplifier? |
Nope, but heading in the correct direction. Still not exactly warm.
Think smaller than an amplifier.Guitar pedal, or some kind of pedal? Probably not..so maybe its a graphic visualizer? I suck at this lol

Not that either - you're out Blaster!
I'm surprised you're having so much difficulty with this one, so I'd better give you a clue:
This item is very small - only about 1.5cm (less than an inch). Items like this are often gold-plated.Is it the thing you use to play the guitar?
Or a gold plated connector for a earphone?
the earphone/mic jack, again, TOO LATE > | scorpio wrote: |
| Or a gold plated connector for a earphone? |
I know I said I wanted specifics, but that's close enough!
The item in the picture is a 3.5mm stereo earphone jack - Congratulations Scorpio! 20 FRIH$ go to you!
------------------------------
Here's the next round:

| dz9c wrote: |
| Eh lol...Um maybe a shiny sticker? Clue please! |
It's not a sticker
| afracsass wrote: |
| it looks like a chain, more specifically a watch chain. |
It's not one of those either!
CLUE: This goes back to a computery thing. The item might not be oriented the way you would use it (ie. the picture might be on its side)
Keep the guesses flooding in!Is it speakers? or the thing on the back of the computer used to ventalate the computer?
| Empire wrote: |
