-->(nocode) ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
-->(code 1) KLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ
-->(code 2) NOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLM
-->(Code 3) OPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLMN
-->(Code 4) CDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZAB
-->(Code 5) KLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJ

You'd then code the phrase like this:
First letter: use the letter corresponding to T in the first alphabet
Second letter: use the letter corresponding to H in the second alphabet...
etc. etc...

Maybe the numbers signify a change to a different alphabet, but then what is the keyword? we need to know that, or else, we can't arrange the alphabets correctly. Or each "alphabet" could actually be alphanumeric.
the fact that the long code of capital letters appears directly above a huge picture of vigenere suggests that we need to use the vigenere method to decode it. we have tried MANY different words for the key and have still been unsuccessful. instead of rearranging the alphabets like above, have you looked for programs that decode the string for you after imputting a key?
