The website featured an image, as displayed in the center, titled ''Hello.jpg'' depicting a man stretching his anus using both of his hands, completely revealing his anal cavity. Because of its shock value, it was the first image to ever be used in bait-and-switch pranks, where the user "baits" another user into clicking a link. The site used the [[wikipedia:.cx|.cx]] domain because its pronunciation is similar to the word "sex", but it was filed by [[wikipedia:Christmas Island|Christmas Island]] to shut down the website. | ||
