I was bored, and not currently having a machine that can do too much, I created this with a web site. Can you tell me what this decodes to?? Maybe we can make some games with these?

We're using barcode sites to turn our messages into barcodes that can be read using smart phones. Some of these have been turned into some interesting artwork!

@Lyle,
Shotcode.com doesn't appear to have a reader for the Droid X. I'll see what other readers for the 'X' I can find.

Yeah; but have you guessed the one afterwards? lol

Join in the fun O. Hard to believe there are so many different types of barcodes. Lot's of folk have already done picture art with them too. Of course, this thread is to show actual barcodes then decode the message. :)
