a real "posser" - lots of backtracking, but ultimately solvable and has a unique solution with no guessing.#2: Kit E. Katz (hello) on Jun 28, 2011 [SPOILER]
Great job - lets get more of these on the site and less of
the coloured junk with no difficulty.

I couldn't do it.#4: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jun 28, 2011
Here's where I got stuck even after some involved logic in the upper left that might not make the general threshold for "logicality". http://postimage.org/image/1nyizfvz8/#5: Kit E. Katz (hello) on Jun 28, 2011
Thanks for commenting you two. I didn't get quite as far as Infrapinklizzard's picture shows, just most of the main outline form and shading. If you two couldn't solve it through logics either, then I'm in good company.#6: Liz P (lizteach) on Jun 29, 2011
My last saved puzzle looks a lot like your image, Joe! :D#7: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Jul 2, 2011
i couldnt see the image at all other than for a vague outline of a body of some sort#8: Jota (jota) on Jul 3, 2011
i also could not solve this logically
I'm in good company you gang!#9: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jul 21, 2011
I got as far as Joe. Too bad, a little work on it could have made it solvable.#10: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jul 31, 2012
Found to be solvable with deep lookahead by gator.#11: karl (keicher) on Jun 15, 2013
backtracking is guessing - but guessing wrong.#12: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jul 4, 2013
Gator, please share your method.#13: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Nov 1, 2013

I can't see it.#17: robert svanberg (tango) on Jan 2, 2017
Very enjoyable even though it was a bit of hard work.#18: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Nov 30, 2017
I have to agree with BlackCat. I am having trouble seeing any image in the finished picture. Can anyone help me out? Like, where's the head located, to start.#19: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Nov 30, 2017
The head is at the upper left. It's a 3-quarter profile, with the bear coming toward us. :)#20: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Nov 30, 2017
Okay, I see the legs and big body now. I still don't really see a face, but everything else has come into view. Thanks, Kristen. ^-^#21: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Dec 2, 2017
I think that's its nose at the far left, but maybe it's been a tardigrade this whole time.
