What are QR codes?

A QR Code is a matrix code (or two-dimensional bar code) created by Japanese corporation Denso-Wave in 1994. The "QR" is derived from "Quick Response", as the creator intended the code to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed. QR Codes are most common in Japan, and are currently the most popular type of two dimensional code in Japan.
Although initially used for tracking parts in vehicle manufacturing, QR Codes are now used for inventory management in a wide variety of industries. More recently, the inclusion of QR Code reading software on camera phones in Japan has led to a wide variety of new, consumer-oriented applications, aimed at relieving the user of the tedious task of entering data into their mobile phone. QR Codes storing addresses and URLs are becoming increasingly common in magazines and advertisements in Japan. The addition of QR Codes on business cards is also becoming common, greatly simplifying the task of entering the personal details of a new acquaintance into the address book of one's mobile phone.

Consumers with capture programs and a PC with an RS-232C-interface may use a scanner to acquire the data.
Quote from Wikipedia.

For example;

This image means "We love AGS". You see the message when you encode the image.

Why do I need help for this?

*I am able to generate the images for a certain text. But I still couldn't decode the images into the messages. It seems like I need the 3rd generation cell phones.

*And the most important part: One of the (old) best friends of mine had sent me one of them. He said he wanted to tell me something, but not in a clear way. He wanted me to solve this code:



Now I don't want to talk about the personal things about us; just let me tell you I finished my all friendship with him a short time ago (let me just say he got sad and this was just my intention to make him feel bad). He told me I would also feel bad when I will solve the code (probably because something I don't know is written in the code).

These all happened about 1 month ago, I think. But now I decided to learn the code.

I would be so grateful if someone could help me to solve this message (This is a Turkish code, by the way).
Thanks in advance.

I whipped out my phone (since I live in Japan) and read in your code.  A few characters came out as Japanese characters probably because the language of the message uses different codes for different accented characters, so you'll have to fill in the ?'s.

Code: ags
ahmet seni ?oook seviyorum iyiki arkada??z... :)


Hope that helps.

Edit:  I had to put it in code tags to supress the emoticon.

Thank you much, Vince :) It really helped.

(by the way, the text means "Ahmet, I love you much, I'm glad we are friends."  I didn't feel myself bad because reading this, though)
