Can't you rename the image pre-posting? Or dump image into something like Paint and save as a new image to erase all embedded data?

Presently all one has to do is [right-click] and [SaveAs] to see the image title to figure out what it is.

You can always repost the original image to give credit to originator when you answer after we're all stumped.

Going about it the long way right click and veiw image info.

It's the air coming out of that two inch pipe as the guy speeds down the road at 90 mph. It all heated up with the increase of velocity.

It's that contact lens my date lost back in the 60's while dancing to "Going up country" by the Canned Heat, in a cow pasture in upstate NY high on everything....or was it "Ten Years After"...

I saw something very much like that many years ago after I passed out during a fiesta celebration and woke up on the balcony. It was extremely hard to focus my eyes but my friends told me it was a female fiesta dancer whirling through the street. The only thing missing is the weird red lines radiating out from around the image to the edge of my field of vision. I am guessing this is not the same phenomenon?

I got this in my mailbox yesterday. It is a new fully adjustable synthetic eye lens.

It can be implanted in the eye as a replacement for a long sighted lens.

It's a cross section of a metallic rod or wire that has been etched.

Looks like an eye lens to me. Perhaps that of a metalworker with arc-eye ?

Don't stop posting Fredski.

Unless you know exactly what it is when you first see it yourself, then right or wrong, any reply is interesting - the wrong ones especially - Google or not - it's all part of the fun.

I can't guess, Fredski, but I love reading the comedic suggestions of others, who do. As far as your last "WII" (What Is It) post went, I, at least, didn't Google, but had seen it earlier in the day as an article on Listverse, or one of the other Knowledge sites. So I knew at a glance what it was. Perhaps you need more esoteric sources?

Whatever will work, please don't give up. Even if some cheat (And there is no doubt some do. But no one on CR4 would ever cheat. At least not the regulars. We all know our character is too good for that!) it is still too much fun reading, and responding, to the posts of those who don't (Maybe like me, they can't even begin to) guess, but nonetheless are inspired to humor by your images. Even if we don't collectively get the result you wish for, you certainly do all of us a service with these questions.

Even after "cheating", I'm still not sure...

The texture suggests something microscopic, while the off-center color fringes suggest rapid motion either to the right or to the left. I'm not sure which...

And the non-circular magenta portion indicates??? I have no idea...

FWIW, keep it up!

PS too my unfinished previous post #15.

I clicked on 'Submit' by mistake instead 'Edit'.

I was going to say it looks like a cake we made years ago our my kids birthday party.

It was a simple decorated sponge cake spread all over in cream and generously sprinkled with coloured desiccated coconut.

But I guess it is not a birthday cake because there are no candles.
