I’m only almost there only that last step I think 
wow. this has probably been my favourite challenge
Please - can someone give me a hint. I’ve tried unraveling it - and looking at the RGB values. Rotating the RGB values… I’ve put it into every steg software I know about… What am I missing!? I’ve tried stereogramming the image. Inverting the image and overlaying it… ARHGHGHGHG.
I’m a bit stuck on this myself and would appreciate a nudge. I see the hints such as “think in threes” and the like, but I’ve been unable to discern anything meaningful from the RGB values. I’ve tried converting the values to and from different base encodings, and I’m just not getting anywhere. Am I overthinking it?

It took me a while to figure this challenge.
Using the RGB values you only get 3 different values, this is similar to a base. From there Check the min and max values you can get converting from that base to decimal. Once you see that number you’ll understand next step.
Got it!
Really fun challenge! Feel free to PM me for hints.
Best question I ever solved!
I’m stuck on this challenge! Can i PM someone for hints ?!
I had tried npiet not_art.png
But …
What is missing…
Stuck on Playing with the color channels - noticed some differences between planes and the gray bits - Would appreciate a hint via PM
This took me a long time, and I definitely wouldn’t have done it without some helpful hints in this thread.
I’d like to compare methods with anyone who has a more automated solution. I did a lot of work by hand that I know I could’ve programmed but couldn’t quite get it.
Stuck on looking at the color’s RGB values - Would appreciate a hint/dicussion via PM (in order not to spoil)
I’m stuck; I thought I was on the right path based on some comments here by looking at the colors and the different combinations in “groups of three”
But I’m not getting anything legible, can anyone provide some pointers whether I am in the right track?
EDIT: nevermind, I was doing everything right, but forgot to do a simple thing once I had the flag message

This was the biggest hint to solve it. My advice for the final part is think about the shape of the image.
PM me if you need help.
solved it man I was right in terms of what it involved but my steps were all wrong.
Can I PM someone to check if I’m on the right path? Got two possible approaches. One with RGB, and one with crazy programming language, not sure which one to go for.

Got it! Thanks a lot for the hints!
finally solved thanks to the hints here and a friendly nudge. I must say, this was a very interesting challenge and makes you think hard. everything needed to solve this challenge is in this thread
