Update on the Mona Lisa picture

The pixelated picture of Mona Lisa has been puzzling since it was discovered several weeks ago (see the comments of this blog post). I received an email from a helpful and skillful friend who reads this blog. This is what she pondered about the picture:

"…and believe that the pixelated image at http://stoptoilworndiamond.co.nf/sanomali.html likely contains another image, probably a QR code. I think the pixels need to be rearranged based on the red component RGB value and for that you'll need someone with true programming knowledge."

I post her comment here hoping that there is someone with the sufficient programming knowledge who could benefit from the clever idea and try it out.
