cool puzzle
no guessing
edge logic early on in column 3 (you can completely place the 14) then some line logic and then smile logic to finish the bottom/center area of rows 18/19

Fantastic puzzle, Wombat.

Hey, people out there, listen up. This solve requires very simple edge logic and very obvious smile logic, both relatively easy to figure out, once you've done it a few times. If you are not familiar with these types of logic, please check out Jan's FAQ (tab on the left). And please change your solvability rating. I ask this, because when most solvers see a question mark, they skip the puzzle, as most experienced solvers do not like puzzles that require guessing. It is almost an insult to the puzzle creator who puts great care into making the puzzle solvable.

Now I'm going to go check out the info on this most interesting image. :-)

A neat explanation. I thought it was some kind of Indian symbol.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by blurglecruncheon.
