The dark box covers are negative pictures and the white ones are originals... I'm thinking there's some connection between the numbers and pictures that give a code for a giveaway =/

I feel like I'm really close, I think I'm just missing one really obvious thing >.<

I do not get it. At first I thought that the groupings were simply hex encodings and all I had to do was pick the original cover or the inverted one then decode. The original cover has the right number of pictures for a valid giveaway id so I went with it. Problem is that 3a isn't an alpha-numeric character.

Haha, that's exactly what I did the first time around too.

tried this as well, doesnt quite work tho, might try to brute force the last digit, but I doubt that will work.

BAZZZINGA
i'm stupid, i've tried almost every thing and still can't get it!

im so frustrated, it says that could be solved without see the links, thats because you can discard the hex numbers that dont give you a letter, and if u see the hex codes in the true pictures it match, but same as some people above, you get a non-alphanuumeric characte (:)
im raging in my head a lot srsly hahaha

it could be life saver

I've got absolutely no idea how to get around the colon... I give up.
Just using the names of the white pictures as hex and turning them into plain text apparently isn't the way to go. :(
Zolwiciel, could you tell us the answer (and how to get it!) after the giveaway closes?

... true or false. 0 or 1 - simple as that
9c 90 64 9a 3a df 74 4c 8b ab 36
Edit: Only 2 entries. But there is nothing more to add - the general idea is in your comments below. The more you search - the more irrivalent info you are geting.
Start with trying to solve the cypher without even clicking on those links.
Edit2: there are 4 entries and less than 7 hours to go. I'm not gong to post an more hints as it IS really simple. All i used to make it was notepad, graphical program to invert colors, this page and as you can see dropbox to store files ;)
Almost last call 38min left - giveaway ends 7:40pm GMT
SOLUTION:
1) The message is in a hex code - i think everybody guessed that
2) everything can be only 0 or 1 - his mean that the most of the time you will nedd to look at the binary code
3) simple hex decoding would give you something like ��d�:ßtL�«6
4) 4 of those chars are alphanumeric the coresponding images were the original ones, there was also this ":" - will get to it later
5) the other images have inverted colors - why did i did it if (as some of you checked) there was nothing helpful under those images. thats becouse i didnt invert just those images, ive simply inverted the "numbers" - thats why it gives you something that is unreadable (most of readable chars have 0 on the front - the inverted ones had 1 - if someone knew binary well he could tell hat somethings wrong with those char just by looking at the code, also people were posting here the order of the pictures in binary - 11010100101 - those are also the first digits of the binary codes ;) )
6) how to "invert numbers"? - simple, if you remeber you are working on binary code - just change the all 0s with 1s and 1s with 0s
7) now put it all in the binary translator (the ":" shouldnt be inverted as it pointed to an original white image, but it didnt really matter what you did with it)
6) now we are getting "code: tLtT6"
Some people got it on time - Gratz to them as well to those who found my comments in under the pictures
