really cool puzzle Aldege, I solved it, but was a toughie, going to give you a 4 for difficulty

Thx Tom, I couldn't get it to say by logic alone so i started to do it myself and it seemed kind of easy to start off so i just assumed it wouldn't be too hard. I'm glad you were able to do it. I suppose Gator will have to remove the red question mark on it.

fun solve

line logic solves about 60-70% of this (there are a few not-so-obvious dots and black pixels you can place)
then look at the first 4 clue in r30 which could be placed anywhere between c7 and c14
internal edge logic allows you to use column 15 as an "edge" and then using edge logic working left you can completely place that 4 into c7-10
then line logic solves nearly the rest with only simple frown logic to finish

no guessing

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by gator.

So why is he frowning? Fun solve though I did have to guess several times.
