Congrats! Money well spent to get some people thinking about how things work. There is so much going on behind the scenes of all this stuff that we do every day. Now to anyone who may say, what a stupid waste of time, or made up challenge, this is real life stuff, for example: http://blog.sucuri.net/2013/07/malware-hidden-inside-jpg-exif-headers.html If you understood any of this, or find this interesting, then you may want to consider a career in internet or network security.
I say in the future you should have like 4-mini puzzles in one thread, each much easier than this one
Even though this was solved, on monday when im home i gotta look at solving this myself haha. Sales can you pm me my own one to try?

I seriously thought it was base64 after some googling but when I tried to put the image in it didn't show a message. I wonder what I did wrong?
