Okay, here's the situation, maggots.
At 2050 Greenwich Meridian Time today valve apparently added an image to the
frontpage of [url=http://www.valvesoftware.com]their website[/url]. As far as the internet has been able to gather so far, the image was removed precisely four minutes afterwards. This was long enough for someone from 4chan to grab a screenshot, but nothing more.
Exhibit A - The Screenshot:

There was a short-lived thread full of manic speculation, the only remnant of which was some MSpaint highlighting.
Exhibit B - The Paint:

Gentlemen, you may remember the dicking around on Valve's part that we were subject to during the Sniper/Spy update a few months back. It seems Gabe is back to his old tricks. Ready your tinfoil hats, and let the rumour mill grind into action.
:tinfoil:

Background looks like gordon, or kliener cuz of glasses.
It isn't. It was on the website for about 5 minutes, then it was gone.
June 18th is my birthday! :buddy:
Toy Story 3 and a Valve surprise(?).... Best birthday ever!
Source 2?! Oh my..
Hang on, I'm going into GIMP to try and lighten up that silhouette. Give me 5 minutes.
I think it looks like Episode 3. but WTF with Take 2 and Source 2 ???
I can't see a person in that, is anyone else having this problem?
Wait.. if this is true, the ARG is still going on?
Someone revive the ARG again and reconnect to that BBS modem and stuff.

Ah, much better. I thought I saw some glasses in there. Scary..
EA is probably just the distributer like they have been with most other Valve products.
NO IT'S GORDON FREEMAN !

Looks like Duke Nukem to me in Commander's increased brightness photo to me.
Wait a second...
