Nice solve and funny description!#4: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Feb 3, 2013
I'm always glad to tackle one of your puzzles. :)
It was fun up until the sky, then I messed up so I peeked.#5: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Feb 3, 2013
Funny Joe and cool image.:)#6: Jota (jota) on Feb 3, 2013
Enjoyed the solve!#7: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Feb 3, 2013 [SPOILER]
Thanks, everyone.#8: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Feb 3, 2013
Norma - I had to insert the cloud in order to make the zebra non-invisible (i.e. solvable).
The fault is mine. I screwed up and without doing a lot of back tracking I couldn't fix it, so I took a quick peek and got back on track.#9: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Feb 4, 2013 [SPOILER]
I had to laugh quite a bit at his "sock-puppet" nose and shetland pony-esque legs.#10: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Feb 4, 2013
Adam, I think the word you're fishing for is "cute". (Or "crude", depends on your temperament.)#11: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Feb 5, 2013
Cute it is, then. I guess. :-)#12: Teresa K (fasstar) on Feb 15, 2013
How fun! At one point I got stuck, and got so frustrated, looking for the next edge logic. Then I saw some color logic I missed. After I got unstuck, it was quite fun to finish. Really nicely designed, Joe.#13: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Feb 15, 2013 [SPOILER]
Thanks, Teresa. I only take partial credit for the image - I got the general idea from a bit of clip-art. The cloud and the solve I do take credit for, though.#14: Teresa K (fasstar) on Feb 16, 2013
Oh, and I hope you didn't actually try to figure out my hint in comment 1, 'cause it was wrong until just now. Pesky r's and c's...
Nope, I did it on my own. *Proudly patting self on back*#15: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on May 3, 2020 [HINT]
