You need to study all 3 comment blocks in the jpeg. One or more of them may be base64 encoded. Good Luck!

yes i fount the xor is your friend, but the other two i cant understand what i have to decipher, i tried doing a brute force of the two, which gave me nothing, also i have dona all your other challenges (which i enjoyed)

The second and third comments are strings that are base64 encoded. Use base64 -d string > file to decode. Note that you need to redirect to a file because the decode generates raw bytes. Do this for the second and third comment to get two files of raw bytes. Then xor is your friend :-)

LOL you are going right this is one of the steps i reached... Just... Push a little harder... It is worth it. Coz at last I had that wonderful feeling, and for sure you don't wanna miss it.
