it's a sentence, the numbers somehow correspond to a letter.

I still don't know how you made those numbers for the letters, but spaces and ' sort of stood out and it was easy making sentence knowing them.

i used that binary site, i = 01101001
reading that as an octal number makes it 295425 in decimal, a bit far fetched actually...

How long did it take you to do that? I just checked the first two (to see if they were square numbers), dumped the lot in an Excel spreadsheet, SQRT()-ed them, moved it into TextPad, used a regex to change each number to &#[number]; and loked at the result in IE .

It's a method of coding based on prime numbers. It's used all over the world and considered impossible to decipher unless you have the key primes.

I'll just suppose I was right and post mine (sorry it took so long, I'm terrible with graphics programs).

I'm not sure how much hint this will need, so I'll start off with just this:

It's a right handed (IIRC) system, based on the vertices. So Blue->Green->Red. Dark->Light. The colors are just there for easy ording, they don't have any meaning. Sorry if my right handed system is really a left, that always confuses me. Just go by the color order.
