since my last solution was not right, i think it point to this solution:
The Roman Colosseum.

You should put a time-limit to every puzzle, if in 3 days no one found it, I doubt they'll find it at all. Plus it's too vague.

3 days is too short a time. At most, maybe give clues if no one makes progress after a week or so. About the "C", "X", "L" and 2 "I", I think those are probably pages or chapters or something of a work related to the picture or subject (tower of babel). But I don't have time to search for it now.

Exactly. I have had my friend photoshop the lightning/contrast in the picture to show what exactly those changes are, and apparently we saw some random letters/figures on them, but it is still very muzzled.

No, it means all the hidden letters and words are in the sky portion of the picture.

Nah, it's the Bitilluminati. They plan to take over the world, (The New Bit Order) establishing Bitcoin as the world currency. They will then hack into the blockchain to make Bitcoin centralized. Ok seriously, I don't think those are the answers

If I join the upper circles I get a .. check mark.
Maybe it's "Done." or something similar. Or, as the upper part of the picture hanging in the museum is a nail, I'd say "Nailed it."
(..Also with reference to what god did to them.)

It's probably important to remember at this point that we've been given "false clues" in the earlier puzzles. It is entirely possible that the variations from the original painting (some people see letters in those variations, but that could simply be the mind performing pattern recognition with a preconceived bias) are intended to lead us in the wrong direction and are not actually a part of the real solution at all.
If you look closely, you'll find that the 'X' that everyone thinks they can see so clearly on the rock at the bottom center of the image is not actually an 'X' at all. It is a series of twelve dark square pixels. Seven of the pixels are touching lower left corner to upper right corner creating something that can possibly be interpreted as a "connected diagonal line". Then there are three dark square pixels below and to the right of that "line". They touch each other lower right corner to upper left corner creating something that can possibly be interpreted as a separate "short connected diagonal line" on the opposite diagonal, and that does not come into contact with the longer "line". If it were extended, it would not cross the longer line in the middle, but rather with four of the seven pixels "below" and only three "above". Finally, there are two dark square pixels above and to the left of the "long line". They touch each other lower right corner to upper left corner creating something that can possibly be interpreted as a separate "very short connected diagonal line" on the same diagonal as the three pixel "line". It also does not come into contact with the longer "line", and (if extended) would cross the longer line at the same place as the three pixel "line".
So, maybe these aren't letters at all. And maybe they aren't even part of the clue.
Perhaps there is something unaltered in the original painting that is meant to be a clue.
"Illuminate the sky" could mean that we'll see something if we adjust the brightness or contrast of the image. It could be referring to the fact that the painting doesn't have a sun or moon. Perhaps there is a way to guess where a shadow would appear and something about that shadow would be a clue. There are a lot of possibilities that might have nothing at all to do with the slight alterations in the image that some people are seeing as letters.

I think the solution is: King Nimrod Like DannyHamilton said maybe is not about to trying to find a clue in the sky, i mean all the hidden letter that have been found are not in the sky and i doubt there something there, about the letters found in the picture someone mark 8 posible letters, i just only see 6 and all those can be roman numbers DCLXII that should be 662 (some people think the c is a g but not seems to me), so close to 666 ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) also the X in the stone is less hidden in comparison with the others, i mean you can almost see it without to zoom in the image, the others are more hard to see. That plus this new clue opened some paths to seek.

It's a rather low resolution image so it is difficult to tell if those are simple artifacts of jpeg compression, or if they are added intentionally. Either way, they are not in the original painting. However, due to the loss effects of jpeg compression and the fact that this is a low resolution image, there are MANY variations in the provided image from the original painting. The "differences" that I circled in red in the image I linked to earlier are all differences identified when comparing to the closest match I could find on the internet (I found an image with the same resolution, the same color temperature, and similar looking jpeg compression. I assumed that if modifications were made to the image for the sake of a clue, then the image I found was possibly the source image that the clue giver used. If you are interested, here is a link to a screenshot showing that same area of sky in both the "source" image that I found and the image provided as a clue: http://imgur.com/E9VMqEZ

Yes, it is the most likely explanation. If I was OP, I would give a clue like that if there is something relevant hidden in the sky. Is the answer the Freemasons? or the Illuminati?
No, it means all the hidden letters and words are in the sky portion of the picture.
