Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 804 - Nice colors eh?

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 804 - Nice colors eh?

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level804/

Quest:
Uhm ok, get the password out of this image...it's a dutch word :)


Required Tools:
Gimp -  http://www.gimp.org/
AsciiTable - http://www.asciitable.com/

Logic Behind this Challenge:
Ok, from what i can see right now, the image seems to be in different shades of a similar colour.
Using Gimp, i have derived the following HTML notation for the colours:
8B8B61, 8B8B61, 8B8B70, 8B8B6A, 8B8B65, 8B8B73


As we can see, the HTML notation for all the colours differ slightly. So let's try converting the last portion of each colour from Hex back to Ascii.

The word that we got back is aapjes and that is the password to this particular challenge.
