Yes if it is just the first 16 and the order is not relevant then we need to work out what to do with this, given it is unlikely that anything specific about those planets/systems, since there was not way to control which were first. They were assigned in batches though, could that have influenced which would be uploaded first?

But it does seem off they appear in a block directly above that does not quite perfectly mirror, so is it wise to ignore the change?

I noticed that not only does the new b&w gallery just link to the original images from the original gallery, but it also carries their comments over.
It may just be a “first 16” commemorative section.

Here’s the primes for each one in order:
(11) 569
(12) 607
(13) 829
(14) 911
(15) 1213
(Not sure if this is important, putting it here just in case)

Emailed system about the 16 grey postcards

sorry guys but we had the same convo in 2 places. I know this causes some redundancy but it does seem to all tie into the Drift issue.
I can get scolded later if this was a bad move…

Yes I was going dizzy looking for where the replies were, thank you for consolidating.

I am going to stand firmly on my “Commemorative Plaque of first postcards across the finish line” gallery theory. A Wall of Fame type thing. Or a neck and neck photo finish type thing.

So you are saying System is remembering its top pics?
or maybe System is dreaming of them…
what if the time drifting is System waking and sleeping? Time is passing differently where System is…?

Looking at the 16 picture carousel, and the order they were added in the url matching all the way up to this point
Then deviating after with the same black and white as the picture. Might be a hint towards something to do with that picture

Not sure if this means anything, but 11(PRIME 569) and 15(PRIME 1213), the (when in order) first and last, are the only two in this list that have neighbors, 11 has one neighbor and 15 has two

Window 1213 picture, the only one that is originally (mostly) black and white, and the one that has started the deviation shift of the 16 picture carousel, is the only picture of something that could be considered ruins.
Just looking for something that sticks out with that picture as of all 16 it seems the only one “hinted” at

Is it ruins… or wreckage?

The planet out of window 419 looks pretty wrecked to me too

I was going to say ancient but technically the portals are ancient too.
If I ignore that flaw then window 1213 is the only one that has something of a past civilization.
looking at you LNF
Is this systems way of choosing a favorite? And it wishes to be a part of it. Will it use the Atlas Archive to make a place for us in the theme of its favorite picture?

Could it be a hint to recheck the order the postacrds are placed below, since they are not in the same order as submitted and how they appear in the haven tracker. For example although 1931 was the 16th on the tracker, it is in position 3 in the grid.

Is System searching for a new home, and we are scouting for them?
There is a room for everyone here. Maybe there is a place for me, too.
Could the time shifts be due to speed of travel? Like how Richard Feynman said if you move faster through space you move more slowly through time and vice versa.
