I remember when aimbots in Counter-Strike worked by searching for a specific color pattern that it would lock onto, so it became somewhat common to put those colors at the center of an image to use as a spray and force any cheaters to stare at a wall. Goatse was a common image used for this.

Glad to see old tricks get new purpose.
