This has tricky color logic and one bit of very hard to find advanced logic.#2: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Dec 13, 2010
You can use color and edge logic until all blue is done and all rows from 14-30 are done.
Then I had to look long and hard to find the edge logic on the 6 in c23 (vs the 3 in r9 and 2 in r8):
If 6 goes down to r9 then
- the 3 in r9 must be c22-24
- also the 2 in r8 must be c22-23
That puts a 2 in c22 where there is only a 1 clue, so c23r9 must be white.
Then a lot more line logic.
Edge logic on the 6 in r1 is the last bit of advanced logic.

i have missed your puzzles
Thank you. I'm back to having two bosses again, so little time to spend here.#4: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Dec 13, 2010
I made a puzzle about a month ago, but couldn't find the time to tweak it, and didn't feel like fiddling with that one tonight. Maybe next week.
Fun puzzle - very difficult.#5: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Dec 13, 2010
excellent solve#6: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Dec 14, 2010
nice image too
Found to be logically solvable by Gator.#7: Gator (Gator) on Dec 14, 2010
Very fun to solve. Agreed on the logic you laid out.#8: Jota (jota) on Dec 14, 2010
I did exactly what you said, w/o reading it! Proud of myself!!!#9: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Dec 14, 2010
no looking, great puz, tuff solve, thx Joe#10: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Dec 15, 2010
at least I managed to solve this. I thing that it is one of the hardest puzzles I ever done. It can be solved by logic alone and that makes this puzzle one of the nicest.#11: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 19, 2010
thanks a lot.
Yikes, that was difficult. I like your description. :-)#12: Velma Warren (Shiro) on May 26, 2019
Fun solve even though I did have to guess several times.#13: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Sep 6, 2020
